Give me a break!: Unless you engage in really really rough and tumble sex you aren't going to break any bones. You do have a very low T score though and you see an endocrinologist who has an interest in calcium metabolism and metabolic bone disease to help you bone up on what to do.

Dr Friedlander and another doctor agreed
