Osteoporosis, Vit K

A year ago I only had lost 5% density when I did my test. This year I went to 10%.
I exercise, take citracal, Vit D, yoga.
So I cannot understand what happened?
Also since last year, my hand nails started cracking, splitting, did not grow, not even with every "miracle" serum out there!
At this same time, my dosage of Wellbutrin ( well, yeah, what can I say?) increased from 150mg a day to 300 mg a day, which is two tablets. Then it was reduced down back to 150mg and guess what my nails started to be healthy again.
I searched the www and could not find any side effects of bone loss or nail problems with this med. Yet it matches to the time of the increase.

I am post menopausal and hormonal levels are fairly low so I expect for my bone density to decrease but I was surprised at this rate.

Has anyone had this reaction if anyone of you are on wellbutrin?

Have you experienced increased bone density loss?

Is anyone on boniva or femara and what effect would that have on bone metastasis. I just finished reading Lani's post on denosumab (thank you Lani, excellent)

I have read that Vitamin K is good to increase bone density-all I knew is it was good for bruising, dark eye circles, that is circulatory conditions. Is anyone taking Vitamin K for this?
thank you all
