I see and osteoporosis specialists, just because your hips are stable at this point, does not mean your osteoporosis should not be treat. At the very least I would seek a bone specialists for a second opinion. A complacent primary care could be setting you up for future issues. Trust me it's easier to prevent bone loss than it is to recover or improve bone loss. I have a malabsorption issue so i've had osteoporosis since my early 50's. I'm 58 now but I've finally got a handle on it. I supplement high quality easily absorbed calcium citrate, Vit D with K2,3. Protein supplements. Weight bearing and resistant exercises 20-30 mins, 3-4 times a week. It sounds like a lot of stuff and trouble but it's really not and the benefits are great!
My wife followed Dr. Lara Briden’s book on natural bone repair. She used ground up egg shells in soups and hot drink. Also she took the supplement “Grow Bone “ brand “Garden of Life” “Vitamin Code with the strontium supplement pills. Brought her from negative 3 back up to normal on bone density.
Hello @paw1. We have a great Osteoporosis support group where you can meet other members who are sharing their experiences with different solutions for their bone loss.
The link to the group is: Osteoporosis and Bone Health:
https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/osteoporosis/
I’ve also posted a link to just one of many conversations in that group where you’ll meet members such as @naomid @artscaping @teb @windyshores and many others who are also concerned about their bone health. I think this one will be of particular interest to you.
