The Strong Years Protocol
Staying strong, steady and independent doesn’t happen by accident. Bones thin quietly, muscle fades gradually, and most people only find out when something breaks. Fig checks early: a bone density scan, a full health panel and a GP-led plan for the years ahead.
- Bone density scan and full health panel
- Every result explained, without rushing
- 12-month protocol with strength and balance built in
If this is you
- Less steady than you were
- Had a fall or a near miss
- Losing strength in your legs
- Never had a bone scan
- Juggling more medications
- Want to stay independent
What we look at:
Full health panel and bone scan
- DEXA bone density scan, the standard test for bone strength
- Blood count, kidney and liver function, cholesterol, blood sugar and thyroid
- Vitamin D, B12 and calcium, plus a PSA test for men after a conversation with your GP
Strength, balance and health history review
- Falls, near misses, mobility and how steady you feel day to day
- Every medication reviewed together, not one at a time
- Every medication reviewed together, not one at a time
Targeted investigation where your results indicate it

What is Fig?
Fig is an Australian digital health clinic bringing GP-led care, a dedicated care team and your care plan together in one connected experience.
Where is Fig available?
Fig is available to patients located in all Australian states and territories: New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, Western Australia, South Australia, Tasmania, the Australian Capital Territory and the Northern Territory. Fig is not available outside Australia. You must have an Australian residential address and be located in Australia at the time of your consultation, and we can only deliver medication to Australian addresses.
Who is it for?
Adults who want a doctor-led weight or health protocol with ongoing monitoring rather than a one-off consult. Eligibility is confirmed by a GP after your health check.
Do I need to already have a prescription or a GP?
No. You do not need an existing prescription or a regular GP. Your Fig doctor reviews your health check and decides what is appropriate for you.
How is this different from other weight-loss options?
Care does not stop at the prescription. You keep the same doctor, a care team checking in, and monitoring that continues for as long as you are on the protocol.
