@lurawilson, bone specific alkaline phosphatase bsap is also a biomarker used to assess bone formation, it reflects bone mineralization process. P1np, another marker for bone formation, reflects collagen synthesis. It looks like your endo will use BSAP to monitor your therapy progress.
C telopeptide is CTX.

Is one better than the other? I would like to get started on the Tymlos if BSAP bone marker is ok to use along with the CTX rather than P1NP. It takes so long to get an appointment or answers from my endo that if BSAP is similar to P1NP I’d rather not push or wait to get labs for P1NP and use the BSAP the dr. ordered.

Thank you mayblin,
so after 3 months of Tymlos I should get the ctx and bsap labs again to see if the Tymlos is working? I want to,stay informed in order to communicate with my dr. Currently my ctx is 389 and bsap 8.2 Can you direct me to information where I can find information about bsap and what to look for? I only find info on p1np.
