Thanks @mayblin. Those dosages are very helpful. My CTX was 1400 twice on Tymlos, at 3months and 7 months on half a dose. It was recently at 1200 and I'd only changed to Forteo for 3 weeks. I figure that was probably still from Tymlos. P1NP was 190 at 3 months, 310 at 7 months and most recently went down to 190 again.

I wish you luck in finding a physician who is informed with current info and who can give you an individualized evaluation.
My endo wasn't sure at first. After I got cleared by 2 cardiologists, she gave me an obgyn name at a different organization and send me for a second opinion. When all lights came back green, she is okay with it and even okay with writing a script when I need one. My thinking is the risks of cvd and breast cancer while using HRT need to be thoroughly evaluated by pertinent physicians, not endocrinologists. However, endo is the one to judge what role HRT is playing in the management of your osteoporosis - whether or not it can be used alone or as an adjuvant (add-on) therapy; and how to monitor progress etc.
