Do You Need Support with Osteoporosis?

Osteoporosis can develop silently, often without warning until a fracture occurs. At our service, we focus on early detection, treatment, and long-term bone health support. These are some of the most common concerns patients face:

  • Hidden Condition: Osteoporosis usually has no obvious symptoms, making regular scans such as DEXA vital for early diagnosis.
  • Risk of Fractures: Weakened bones can lead to breaks from minor falls, reducing confidence and independence.
  • Uncertainty About Treatment Options: Many are unsure whether HRT, supplements, or lifestyle changes are right for their individual needs.
  • Long-Term Management: Osteoporosis requires continuous monitoring and tailored support to maintain bone strength.

FAQs

What is osteoporosis and how is it diagnosed?

Osteoporosis is a condition where bones lose density and become weaker. At our London service, DEXA bone density scans are used to detect it early before fractures occur.

Is HRT safe for osteoporosis treatment?

HRT can help reduce bone density loss, especially in cases of premature menopause. At Hormone Health, clinicians assess each case individually to ensure safety and suitability.

How much does an osteoporosis consultation cost?

Consultation costs are transparent and clearly displayed before you book your appointment, so you know exactly what to expect.

Do I need a referral from my NHS GP?

No referral is required. You can book a consultation or scan directly with our service for faster access.

How long until treatment benefits appear?

Osteoporosis management is gradual. Improvements are monitored over time using follow-up DEXA scans and clinical reviews.

Is your service regulated?

Yes. Hormone Health is registered with and regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), ensuring high-quality, safe care.
