The lumbar-spine bone mineral density increased in the alendronate participants along with lack of losing hardly any height. The study also shows a decrease in the amount of vertebral fractures while taking alendronate. During the course of the experiment there were no significant differences in the incidence of serious adverse effects. In the end taking 10 mg of alendronate daily for 2 years has been proven to increase overall bone mineral density of the spine, hip, and total body. Just like postmenopausal women, alendronate has proven that bone density can be increased and the chances of vertebral fractures, hip fractures, and other types of fractures will decrease. This study however, does not speak for all men on this planet. Keep in mind that most of the participants were white and there has been few researches done involving other racial groups to know if the outcome would be the
