What do they base improved bone quality on? If DEXA drops for some people and they use DEXA to tell us we need treatment, how can they then say the quality is better unless maybe TBS improves? Or, is it based on human bone biopsies?

@sallyj2 my doctors' comments on bone quality effects were no doubt based on studies, but I didn't ask. I have not had any tests on bone quality, including TBS- even McCormick says mine will be terrible so I don't need to do them!
