The more I think about it, the more amazing it is.

The Dr explicitly told me that because I take T and because I'm short, my osteoporosis is now cured

My 10 years of osteoporosis has been reversed because I'm.. a short trans man.

Well just saw the musculoskeletal team - I don't have osteoporosis anymore! Thanks to taking testosterone for such a long time, my bone density is massively improving, and the longer I take T, the stronger my bones will get.

So, thanks to medically transitioning, I've grown out of osteoporosis!

This combination of #minerals provides support for a wide range of applications including; #menopause/ post-menopause related #osteoporosis, #bone #fractures, #neuro-muscular disorders e.g. #fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), #cardiovascular conditions e.g. #hypertension, the #elderly, and #sports #nutrition (#magnesium and malic acid are required for efficient energy #metabolism

Day 2 of being on new #HRT #medications for both #menopause & #osteoporosis #medical issues. I'm taking Premarin & Progesterone.

My hot flash didn't last as long & was less intense tonight. Usually, they last well over an hour, are very intense/unbearable to sleep & I soak sheets with sweat. I have insomnia again tonight but it's not related to my new meds but more due to neurological fatigue due to recent external stressors related to my CPTSD/PTSD.

A newly discovered hormone in mice that prevents bone loss during lactation could one day be used to treat osteoporosis in humans. Read more from New Scientist: https://flip.it/2nFj9C

The #Biden admin on Wed announced cost savings on 64 additional #drugs under a new #Medicare program.

Under the 2022 #InflationReductionAct, drug companies that raise prices of certain meds faster than the rate of #inflation are required to pay a rebate to Medicare. Federal ofcls then perform adjustments to lower the cost of the #MedicarePartB drugs that qualify.

Biden ofcls say that >750k people covered by Medicare use the 64 drugs; the drugs treat conditions such as #cancer & #osteoporosis.

I have early #osteoporosis from cancer treatment and losing my estrogen really early so I’m trying to step away from being depressed about it and be more public with this class A first rate *struggle*

My wife, Penny, took a fall and fractured her 7, 8, 9 and 10th ribs.

She has #osteoporosis so we were worried that they were a lot worse.

Such a relief. This would have been a lot worse had she not been getting #Reclast infusions for her osteoporosis. A few years ago, she fractured several just bending over the wrong way to pick paper up.

Who knows how bad it would have been. It was a violent, traumatic fall.

Her spleen is fine. That was a concern of the doctor after he saw the swelling.

I straight up asked my family doctor why he has only been pushing #Prolia drugs on me - telling me it's best/easiest option for #osteoporosis folks. Yet - he didn't know full drug profile & didn't warn me about very serious side affects. That's not OK.

If your got #osteoporosis watch this video: https://youtu.be/Cd0YT-OV97c

According to the discovery, estrogen drops at 50 years old in women and that is due to menopause. This in turn messes with the function of the cells that regularly destroy the bones. Soy and Kiwi as a combo helps because a bacteria in the gut uses both to crease a molecule similar to estrogen that then regulates the cells that destroy the bones. There are two cells at play, one makes bone and the other destroys it. Balance.

If you've also been diagnosed with #osteoporosis can you please share your experiences with medications that worked for you & ones you had difficulties with? I've been given a few different medication options & am doing some research & also want to hear from other osteoporosis patients who were diagnosed years ago. I'm a bit scared about harsh side effects. I don't take many pharmaceuticals & am pretty sensitive to most pharma drugs.

I'm looking at several dietary & supplements changes too.

I’ve accidentally kicked my toes against things 3 times this week which I’m convinced would’ve resulted in at least one break around a year ago. Seems like all the weight bearing exercises and HRT are working!

Well, I seem to have acquired a #StressFracture in my foot. Not sure how or when but my bones are increasingly fragile as I age. Just walking from room to room in my apartment was very painful on the weekend. So, I'll be wearing my hiking boots indoors and avoiding long walks until the pain alleviates.
