Endometriosis & Bone Mineral Density
My wife had undergone her Endometriosis surgery in Sep 2016 and continued her infertility treatment for a year later. During Endometriosis surgery, she had to take injection Lupron Depot 3.75 mg twice, once each month before surgery. Also after surgery, she was on infertility related hormonal tablets. I read today about the relation between Endometriosis and loss of Bone Mineral Density. My wife is now suffering from Lumbar Spondylosis (Disc Herniation) and her Vitamin D3 level was found to be very low. She is now taking Vitamin & Calcium tablets as per our Orthopedist and Physiotherapy treatment.
Is endometriosis/infertility treatment the only reason for her Spondylosis? What is the best cure for it?
No there are many other causes of spondylosis and PIVD like hereditary, trauma, pregnancy, old age etc.
