Dr taking me off Prolia to start Evenity

My understanding is that Evenity builds bone for 3-months & then maintains the gains for the remaining 9-months. That's what I've gleaned so far from articles that I've read.

Interesting...I'll ask my endo about that. He said something to the effect of keeping me on Evenity for 12 months, to build bone, followed by a period in which I'm using two additional bone-regeneration drugs (forgot the names). The latter, if I understand correctly, is to lock in the gains achieved during the 12 months of Evenity therapy.

I don't yet know the nuances of exactly how these drugs work. Still learning.
