Percentage changes in lumbar 1–4 bone mineral density (L-BMD) from 59 to 66 years of age. L-BMD was 0.574 g/cm2 (− 4.5 standard deviation [SD]) prior to treatment, 0.824 g/cm2 (− 2.4 SD; 44.7% increase) at 1 year, 0.877 g/cm2 (− 1.9 SD; 53.3% increase) at 2 years, 0.926 g/cm2 (− 1.5 SD; 61.9% increase) at 3 years, and 0.957 g/cm2 (− 1.3 SD; 66.3% increase) at 6.5 years
