Do is what you are saying mean getting my ovarys out will not help
because the drugs for me are not an option. I read the side effects of both drugs one in needle form to strengthen my bones and then laughable enough this drug to stop the production that has a side effect of thinning brittle bones exposed jaws teeth falling out etc etc
no thanks not for me
Hi Sam
I remember having a petrifying fear of the prolia injections that my onc. suggested for my osteoporosis (The hormone blockers I use for estrogen positive bc as reduce my bone density significantly). My onc. said that the necrosis of the jaw and falling out of teeth issues he has probably only come across once in his whole career of 20yrs plus and this was with an elderly patient that was on monthly prolia injections. Usually bc patients like us with low bone density only requires a six monthly injection. I am still fearful in saying this because I am 42 yo with bones of an 80yo and it is never far from my mind all the side effects but for me it is better than the alternative. I've noticed another lady posted recently that she managed to control and even restore her bone density with a weight bearing weight lifting program she's been doing for the past 2 years I think and that without the prolia injection. I will have to find a link to her post thought but I think it was called "Increased bone density without prolia injections or something"
