I have read that strontium can indeed improve bone density-if too slowly for some. So the issue is mainly that assessment on DEXA is skewed.
The problem is that posts claim gains that may not be accurate. But there may be gains, yes.
Europe withdrew approval over risks and side effects, not effectiveness. It is back on the market for severe cases who cannot take anything else.
My kidneys are bad, and I have a heart condition, or I would consider it as a follow-up to Tymlos, to be honest. My doctor doesn't work with it, and Keith McCormick (who wrote "The Whole Body Approach to Osteoporosis:) did not recommend it to me in my consultation with him.
But if I cannot tolerate Reclast and my doc doesn't prescribe Prolia, I feel like I am running out of options and I will look into strontium risks more deeply. But I were to use it, I would never post gains on this site without a disclaimer!!
