Weight Gain on Tymlos

@dmedaglio1 I am on my last month of Tymlos. I have had a 10% increase in bmd in my hips. One has gone from osteoporosis to osteopenia. I started gaining weight in my second year on Tymlos. I am not happy about it but I am very pleased with the effect on my hips-and if the weight comes off over the next 6-12 months, all the better. My primary concern is what to do next to protect my gains.

@fresian1
What is your endocrinologist offering as a treatment plan post Tymlos? Have you taken osteoporosis drugs prior to Tymlos?

@fresian1 Tymlos is also working for me. Initially I gained a few pounds. However recently with not feeling well due to stomach issues and stepping up my resistance training I lost quite a few pounds from not being able to eat as much but my stomach is still thick. I have switched to mostly injecting in the outer part of the thigh.

@fresian1 I also don't know what to do next as I am fearful of Reclast due to my osteoarthritis and already having auto immune thyroid and I wonder go on Prolia as I can never transition to bio phosphates because of my stomach issues
