Thanks. I suspect this will be of particular interest to women.

Did you hear the part about women under fifty doing the best? Women over fifty the worst, but still within the guidelines. I am no expert, but it sounded like cement and old, porous bones contributed to the issue. Damn menopause. (I have wondered about the role of changing hormones and a woman's THR or HR.)


Liked the part about HR bones getting stronger post op.
