I don't think you need fortified milk either, but if you are worried about it you can take it, that's what I meant. There is no indication of lack of calcium in vegetarians or vegans, many studies have shown it. Most likely, its your expectation of how much calcium is actually needed and how essential dairy is that has been shapped through years of advertising and missinformation. Actually, its the opposite vegetarians and vegans have usually stronger bones. Dairy has been actually linked to more bone fractures in general - https://nutritionfacts.org/2017/01/31/why-is-milk-consumption-associated-with-more-bone-fractures/ https://nutritionfacts.org/2017/01/31/why-is-milk-consumptio... Eat a balanced whole food plant-based diet and you will be absolutely fine and actually much healthier in general than with a standard diet.
