How did you manage the pain side effects of Prolia?

Thank you for your response. I don't know if we are speaking the same language. My knowledge of how Prolia works does not include building new bone.
From the headline on website, I copied this introduction.
"Prolia® is an injection that works with your body to help stop the development of bone-removing cells."
Unless I am reading this comment incorrectly, Prolia does not create new bone. Interpreted as stated, it implies that Prolia helps prevent the development of cells that reduce bone.
While I am not here as a mentor to disagree with you as a member, I do feel that I must support the information that has been given to me to share with other members.
May you be free and protected from inner and outer harm.

I think that a drug that works with your body is better than one that adds extra bone. I always worry about accelerated bone growth and cancer. So many women contract this.
I had a small percentage of bone growth with Prolia and that doctor put me on Evenity that grows bone anyway. I don't see that point in doing that if you are making new bone, although, slowly.

Because you misinterpreted my statement, I apparently didn’t state it well enough. I wasn’t saying that Prolia builds bone but it repairs the process of bone regeneration so that we don’t lose more bone.
“Without
treatment
An excess of bone-removing cells in your body makes you lose bone faster than your body can rebuild it, putting you at risk for fracture.
With
Prolia®
Prolia® is an injection that works with your body to help stop the development of bone-removing cells.”
