I just had my third Dexa Scan since my surgery in Aug 2000. Although I am still

in " normal " range, each scans scores has decreased a little bit. I asked my

primary doc about that today and his explanation is that I am 50 yrs old. (Not

menopausal yet, but in his opinion close enough.) His point is that being

pre-menapausal, my bone density is going to naturally decrease each year.

Is this correct? I take plenty of calcium citrate. I exercise consistently.

Am I doomed to bone loss simply because of age? Or should I be upping my

calcium even more? I currently take a minimum of 1500 mg calcium citrate(plus

mag, and vit D) per day, some days more.
