I've been using Alendronic Acid for about 10 weeks now for DEXA scan showing bone loss. I felt a bit more like myself around week 4. I felt significantly better. Still taking it and plan to continue.

After 12 weeks on Alendronic Acid, I'd say it made a modest difference to my bone density decline. Hard to tell if it was this or other lifestyle changes. Not sure if I'll continue long-term.

I tried Alendronic Acid for osteopenia diagnosis but the results were mixed. the worst of the symptoms eased, but the side effects made it hard to continue. Not sure if I'll continue long-term.

I tried Alendronic Acid for DEXA scan showing bone loss but the results were mixed. things started to shift slightly, but the side effects made it hard to continue. I may try increasing the dose.

Alendronic Acid helped somewhat with my family history of osteoporosis — anxiety eased somewhat, though sleep didn't improve much. Still deciding whether to continue.
