Summary
Men treated with neoadjuvant luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH)-agonists such as leuprolide and goserelin for prostate cancer will become hypogonadal due to hormonal suppression and demonstrate increased bone turnover and consequent bone loss at the hip and spine. This bone loss can be prevented by treatment with 35 mg/week of risedronate.
