I’m a healthy 69 year old woman and have severe osteoporosis. My rheumatologist wants me to start Evenity. It’s taken me about four months to make the decision to start. Will get the first two injections in the next little while. After the last injections, she wants me to start on Prolia. I hope I made the right decision!

I hope you check in with us! I chose Forteo because evenity is newer and I am just more comfortable with meds that have been around a good long time. Maybe I’m old school (I’m 62 and healthy, too), and as long as we are active with weight bearing exercises, even walking, I’m sure these meds have to be helping. Best of luck to you!

Exactly the advice I was given. I am on my 11 month of Evenity. A month after the 12th injections I start Prolia. Am so hoping Evenity has improved my bone density and Prolia will help me maintain the improvement.
