Guest guest Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 Dear Forum, I am a male, 51 years old, with osteoporosis. The cause is low testosterone, and I am on Testim, for this. I had been taking Fosamax also, and became concerned about the long term effects, so I looked for an alternative. I found a Chinese Herbal Medicine called Xianling Gubao. The traditional Chinese medicine definition of mode of operation is that it " tonifies the kidney " . Lately, I found out that the main component, an herbal root, is actually a powerful phytoestrogen; a plant compound that acts like estrogen in the system. Can anyone give me an idea of how this should affect my system? Should it help, or hurt osteoporosis? Thank you so much! Sincerely, OsteoMike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
