Reclast has a greater affinity for bone than alendronate enhanced even further because of bioavailability because it is given IV.
You probably would have increased BMD with a single year of Reclast. One injection would put you at 4.5 years.
Prolia is not an anabolic.
Evenity is anabolic for only the first three months of use.
You may have increased bone density with any of the three. They all pose risks that should be considered carefully.
If you get bone markers you'll have a better idea of what medication would advantage you.
Forteo and Tymlos are most worthy of consideration.
@jo184 my docs don't use Prolia. It is risky getting off it. My doc jokes that he might prescribe it when he is retiring, so he doesn't have to deal with transitioning patients off Prolia, usually to Reclast.
