The trial of more than 2,000 patients showed DMab -- which works to slow bone destruction, a primary concern for people with advanced cancer and the cause of a myriad of complications, including fractures -- delayed the time it took for damage to occur when compared to rival drug Zometa, which is made by Novartis. Amgen has already submitted DMab to the Food and Drug Administration as a treatment for osteoporosis.</description><pubDate>Thu, 09 Jul 2009 16:46:00 EDT</pubDate></item><item><title>What are good options for osteoporosis meds?</title><link>http://www.cnn.com/2009/HEALTH/expert.q.a/06/10/bone.density.drugs.brawley/index.html#cnnSTCText</link><guid>http://www.cnn.com/2009/HEALTH/expert.q.a/06/10/bone.density.drugs.brawley/index.html#cnnSTCText</guid><description>I am a healthy and fit 55-year-old woman.

I had a couple of larger cysts removed about five years ago and was told I had endometriosis at that time. I continue to have pain and now have been told I have a 7 cm cyst on the right ovary. My doctor recommends removing both ovaries and the uterus. I'm just researching the pros and cons. Was wondering if there are any major issues I should be concerned about if I had the uterus and both ovaries removed. I am 42 and do not plan to have children. Given the history of pain and previous cysts, is it a good idea to go ahead and remove everything? Thanks for your time.
