Hello. I am a 71 year old male. I had a L5 compression fracture while lifting a heavy object. A DEXA scan revealed osteoporosis, which I was surprised to learn. After several rounds of blood work, the doctors determined my osteoporosis was idiopathic (no identified, underlying cause).

Just had my DEXA scan after completing a year of Evenity:
Spine improved from -3.2 to -2.1
Femoral Neck from -2.0 to -1.9
Total Hip from -1.6 to -1.0
After a lot of research, including helpful input from members of this discussion group, I have decided to move on to Prolia injections for 1 to 2 years, followed by Reclast. I had no side effects with Evenity.
My Rheumatologist has patients that have been receiving Prolia for nearly 15 years with no adverse side effects. But my goal is to hopefully not have to stay on Prolia indefinitely.
