Primary care docs prescribe Fosamax or Prolia because insurance require these for those with mild osteoporosis and no fractures. This needs to change! These meds can interfere with the effectiveness of bone builders like Forteo, Tymlos or Evenity.

We don't know your scores but it they are serious, you might want to see an endocrinologist and get on a bone -builder. You eventually lock in gains with one of the bisphosphonates (Reclast or Fosamax etc.). "Great Bones" is a great book and resource! Also a video online by Dr. Ben Ledr about the Sequencing and Combinations of meds.
