Yes, I had a gradual weight gain of about 7 lbs after about the 4th month. But, I am finished now and my gains ranged from 4.7 to 8.5 in lumbar spine, femoral back and hips. Have 30 more days before it is out of my system but my weight is beginning to creep back down to normal with my usual Mediterranean diet. My lumbar spine is in normal range and the others areas are in osteopenia range but doctor says it is pretty normal at age 75. Evenity was worth it for me!

@sandrac Thank you Sandrac. Is your Doctor/Endo going to have you on a follow up drug? I am so nervous about starting evenity and my Endo states there will be 2 years of follow up drugs. Last Sept. my DEXA lumbar -4 and -2.1 for hips. I retired early due to major stress from job. I was a runner for 30 years. I walk 2-4 miles daily, light resistance training, do PT exercises as well, Eat all the proper amount of nutritious foods to get proper calcium, D, K...etc. I also added in NATTO, healthy Bones Co Collagen peptides, eat prunes daily, nuts, etc. My next DEXA is 8/14th. It honestly feels like an end to my world, if I go on these drugs. My sisters and mom had osteoporosis, but did not do all exercise, diet, etc.; and had severe reactions to all Osteo drugs and had to stop.
