Prolia treatment for osteoporosis: What is your experience?

@sue225. I too avoid drugs whenever possible but recently it has become less and less possible to do so. Thank you for your post, it is somewhat reassuring if my endo does suggest prolia. When you started on prolia how bad was your bone density? I know there only a couple of drugs that increase density, most help to maintain it.

I dont have my report in front of me but the numbers were over -3 for both the hip and spine and there had been a steady decline for several years with a big decline over an 18 month period. I also am petite and small-boned. In addition, my celiac disease was mis-diagnosed for many years. I was diagnosed as a celiac in my early 20's and probably had celiac disease from day one. So, there were many years of malabsorption of nutrients, (my ability to achieve a high peak bone density was compromised).
