First read about onPrepareOptionsMenu(Menu menu)

Each time the user presses the Menu on their Android device while inside one of your activities, the onPrepareOptionsMenu method is called. The first time the menu is shown (i.e. only once), the onCreateOptionsMenu method is called.

Basically, the onPrepareOptionsMenu method is where you should make any changes such as enabling/disabling certain menu items, or changing the menu item text depending on the circumstances.

So do this (Don't use onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) )

//Dynamically create context Menu
    @Override
    public boolean onPrepareOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        menu.clear(); //Clear view of previous menu
        MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater();
        if(condition_true)
            inflater.inflate(R.menu.menu_one, menu);
        else
            inflater.inflate(R.menu.menu_two, menu);
        return super.onPrepareOptionsMenu(menu);
    }
