@naturegirl5 medication did you get on?
I’m 61 and was just diagnosed with osteoporosis in my lumbar spine so kind of freaking out a bit and trying to sift through all of the information on over the counter supplements versus the Prolia shot.
Would really appreciate anyone in my same situation, letting me know what worked for them! Thanks in advance.

@frannie1

Would Prolia be your first osteoporosis medication and if so, what is your providers rationale for starting with it?

@frannie1, If you enter Prolia in the search bar at the very top of the page, you'll find a lot of discussion on this topic.

@frannie1 Tymlos is the best drug for spinal osteoporosis. Forteo is the next best, then Evenity. I have been taking Tymlos for 14 months. After 12 months my bmd for my spine was up 10.4%. I have had no side effects.
