Yikes. I told my primary care doctor I was stopping Prolia and he didn’t say anything. What type of specialist knows about osteoporosis? I think I should talk to a doctor that knows about osteoporosis because apparently my primary care doc doesn’t.

Only endocrinologists and rheumatologists are trained and frankly only the young ones as it’s not been an issue for too long. Primaries and gynecologists are giving out very bad information. Some not what they’re talking about but many do not.

Make sure that you find a physician who has an active practice of patients with osteoporosis. I went with an endocrinologist because I like that they understand whole systems of the body. Not that other physicians don't understand the body, but so many medicines affect thyroid and other endocrine systems so I figure that a good endocrinologist has a better Big Picture understanding of how the whole thing works.
