Members discussed which type of doctor is best for treating osteoporosis, with many recommending endocrinologists, especially for those who also have Hashimoto's disease, since they specialize in both conditions. Several members shared their experiences with rheumatologists, noting that while they may recommend treatments like annual Reclast infusions, some preferred to try natural approaches first, including calcium, magnesium, vitamin D, and vitamin K supplements. A recurring theme was the challenge of deciding how long to pursue natural methods before considering medication, balanced with the constant worry of managing osteoporosis alongside other health issues.
