I have been on it for 2 years. No side effects, and my bone density improved on my last scan. I am due for another scan in 2 months so I hope it has improved significantly

I've had 2 shots, did fine, no side effects. Haven't had a follow up bone density yet-next appointment is soon. Also was advised to increase dairy to 3 servings per day. I do a yoga routine for osteoporosis-google "12 minutes of Yoga for Bone Health" from the New York Times-there are also youtube videos of the routine, its easy. Best wishes.

This is something I have to make a decision on, not my DR. MY BONES are so bad and hearing other womens experiences will help me make a decision. I injected myself for 2cyrs with Forteo, went to gym everyday and no improvement. very disappointed

Had my first shot back in May and so far no side effects. The doctor explained about possible side effects - mainly with teeth. He also called my dentist to advise him that I was getting Prolia shots. I do see dentist/hygienist every 4 months anyway.
Hoping the shots work. Good luck to you! |

Had I known this latest research about the rebound bone turn over and compression fractures I would have never started taking it. Please research it and make an informed decision. I want to stop but cannot due to the latest research. I hope they eventually figure out a safe way to get off of it!

I have been on it for over 2 years. My bones were so bad that I had a double fracture in my arm just from adjusting a pillow my head was on. For the first time in over 10 years my bone density did not get worse and actually improved a little in a couple of places. No side effects at all. I am grateful for Prolia and would not choose to stop the shots.

I had 4 shots over 2 years. My bone density improved but have had awful issues with my teeth....lost 3, with extended bridges. I stopped the shots and my bone density is still good and no teeth issues.

This may not be the format to get medical advice .... there are many serious side effects that you should be aware of and you should look at the information provided by sites like the Mayo and the Cleveland Clinics.

I’ve had 4 shots. No side effects. And, I’ve had an increase in bone density. I highly recommend the shot. ������

My wife was on it, when it first came on the market. She had terrible side affects in her hip joints. Stopped taking after 2 years.
Gyne Doctor recommenced Algae Cal, no script. Bone Density much, much better....no side affects.. |
