How Often Should You Get a DEXA Scan?

Most clients repeat DEXA scans every:

  • 8–12 weeks for active tracking
  • 3–6 months for general monitoring


The ideal frequency depends on:

  • training goals
  • weight loss progress
  • muscle gain goals
  • medical guidance
  • lifestyle changes
  • Consistency matters more than frequency. Testing under similar conditions each time helps produce the most useful comparisons.
