I wish you luck. My spine score is worse than yours, but I am too scared to try osteo drugs. I am seeing my gyn this week to discuss HRT (which also scares me since I am 16 years post menopause - but does not scare me as much as osteo drugs).

Hi Pennykj,
Did you learn anything about HRT as treatment for osteoporosis that you could share? I'm reading so much conflicting info. about HRT/MHT for bones. I wish my providers had brought it up to me 7 years ago, when I first started menopause, but it seemed everyone was set against it. Now, there is a shift toward hormones for menopause discomfort, under age 59 or 10-years past menopause, as some docs indicate. Dr. Jen Gunter has been a good resource for me but I'm still unclear about whether it is something I could or should consider for treating osteoporosis, my latest doctor has suggested it.
