TEB thank you so much for sharing your information. It's so appreciated. Just want you to know that when I went up to the .0375 after being on the .025, my body reacted to the change about a month in. I experienced breast tenderness for a week or so until my body adjusted to the higher dosage. Now I again have no symptoms and after being on the .0375 for several months I will ask to titrate up to the .05 if my ND agrees. That is why I asked if your gyn saw any risk issues going for a higher dosage.... I am looking forward to looking at the video with Dr. Risa Kagan! Thanks again!

Thank you for sharing that information. I will give it some time to see if my body adjusts. Haven't started it yet but I'm anxious to move forward.
I never mind anyone asking my age! I'm 67. Went through menopause at about 52-53. Diagnosed with osteo at 57. Refused meds, being the health conscious person that I am. Tried to build bone naturally eating a stellar diet, calculating all of my nutrition so that I met all targets, increased exercise to 2 hours a day, got a standing desk so was weight-bearing all day, blah blah blah. My next dexa 2 years later showed additional major bone loss so I knew I had to accept a pharmaceutical or I'd be in big trouble. I went on Forteo for 2 years, gained some bone back and then chose to go on HRT to maintain the gains. I was about 62-63ish at the time. That's my gory story! More info than you asked for but I share it in the hopes that it might help some others in their decision making.
