Dr. Doug reviews available research showing that hormones and bone drugs often work synergistically, supporting bone metabolism rather than interfering with treatment. He explains how different classes of medications interact with estrogen and progesterone, and why treatment decisions should focus on improving overall bone biology and reducing fracture risk.
