@pp27va Hello - I don't have experience with strontium myself, but I have had unintended side effects from other supplements, so I am always cautious about trying them. I did a little searching to try to find some information for you.

I would like to point you to at least one previous discussion here about using strontium for osteoporosis.

Here is an article about the potential "downside" of strontium and DXA scans:

Are you hoping to use strontium as a supplement to avoid prescription drugs for osteoporosis?

Thank you. I am currently taking Evista, and as this does not actually generate new bone, only prevents bone loss, was hoping to find something to help make new bone.
