@gently I would love to see the article on Tymlos vs Forteo and porosity. This raises the issues of bone density vs bone quality, and strength vs flexibility. Very interesting. I am particularly interested in the context of compression fractures, which will be hard to find!

Windyshores,
This article is not T vs F but elucidates the principle nicely. Still looking. It's a principle that applies to Tymlos as well.
You'd best never consider Forteo. Would you take Tymlos again.
"While TPTD increases porosity, it increases outer diameter and thickness of the cortical bone thereby increasing bone strength. "
