Also I had someone tell me her parathyroid was involved. I will have to look up to see if a blood test for that is done.
I know endo's treat a variety of conditions including osteoporosis. Do people see a gyn for management I wonder?

@alexxa yes to PTH. I may have left others out too! Parathyroid is very important to check since high PTH can cause bone loss.

You can test your parathyroid levels with a blood test. I had mine tested and they were too high which led to a parathyroid surgery. This was all in hopes of helping my body absorb calcium. Still working on all of it.
