Osteoporosis Screening & Prolia® Injections

Keep Your Bones Strong

Osteoporosis is a condition that weakens bones and increases the risk of fractures. Because it often has no symptoms until a bone breaks, early screening is important.

Our providers offer osteoporosis evaluations, bone density testing, and Prolia® injections to help protect your bone health.

Osteoporosis Screening

You may benefit from a bone health evaluation if you:

• Are age 65 or older
• Have gone through menopause
• Have a family history of osteoporosis
• Have had a fracture after age 50
• Take long-term steroid medications
• Have other risk factors for bone loss

A bone density (DEXA) scan is a quick, painless test that measures bone strength and helps determine your risk for fractures.

Prolia® Injections

Prolia® is a prescription medication used to treat osteoporosis in people at high risk for fractures. It helps strengthen bones and reduce the risk of broken bones.

• Given as an injection once every six months
• Administered in our office
• Treatment is monitored by your healthcare provider

Your provider will determine if Prolia is the right treatment for you.

Caring for Your Bone Health

In addition to medication, we may recommend:

• Calcium and vitamin D
• Regular weight-bearing exercise
• Healthy lifestyle habits
• Routine bone density monitoring
