Only asking because another individual I know is in a similar bot - have they checked vitamim D levels? Very low vitamin D levels can cause poor calcium absorption and bone densities.

I was diagnosed with Vitamin-D deficiency when I was a child and I took supplements.

Now the Vitamin-D is at normal levels in-spite of osteoporosis, Likely because of the Alpha D3 supplements.

Doctor did say that my calcium absorption is low, But no investigation was done to why. Vitamin D supplements seems to be a standard course of action.
