@melclarity I have used Prolia since commencing Letrozole as I was already osteoporotic and had had an osteoporotic fracture but have been very impressed by what I have learnt from @Deanne about the Bone Clinic program.
Like you my knowledge is evolving . I understand Prolia Is highly effective for building bone but it seems if we stop the injections bone density gains disappear rapidly . I am concerned we do NOT view Prolia as a TEMPORARY adjunct whilst taking Aromatase Inhibitors.
I remember well sharing exciting news with you about Prolia being used In NY with breast cancer patients on hormone therapy and found to further reduce the risk of recurrence.
In my circumstances ,with existing osteoporotic fractures , Prolia is a lifetime regimen but I am also doing light weights twice weekly to help. However If I had been osteopenic at the outset I would have considered an intensive weight bearing program as a first step.
