@wkay1212, I also have a stress fracture that is not healint, but I am taking Tymlos. Your experience is more evidence for me that the anabolics just help trabecular bones, especially the spine. Especially at first, I think they make cortical bones porous. I considered stopping the Tymlos to make my bone heal, but am afraid to do that without an absorptive medication.
My endo wants me to take Prolia after Tymlos, but I told him I don't want to. I am afraid of taking a medication that has side effects that could last a long time, and I don't want to take Prolia for the rest of my life.

What type of stress fractures and how long has it been? I have 2 metatarsal stress fractures for 27 months and they are also not healing. Curious what meds you have taken and when stress fracture occurred. I really would like to figure what I can do to get my foot to heal. Thank you. I know this is not easy.

@drsuefowler I was told Tymlos helps healing for fractures.
I had a 9% gain in hip which is partly trabecular and partly cortical. I was told that Forteo results in increased porosity more than Tymlos. (Another poster had some interesting ideas on whether porosity means flexibility.)
