How Does Prolia Work In The System?

A MyOsteoTeam Member asked a question 💭
New Orleans, LA

I didn’t think of this question when at the docs office but how does Prolia work in the system every 6 months. I know it promotes bone growth but why only every 6 months? Also the doctor told me it will not help with the pain but I wonder if bones get stronger and perhaps energy increases if indirectly pain will possibly decrease over time and with the right supplements continued.
