lynn59, you have it right-- the first three months of Evenity primarily builds bone. Evenity-bone is not the remodeled bone of the pth therapies--Forteo or Tymlos. It's a heavier unarticulated bone and it's periosteal bone. It is inside the sheath covering the bone, but on the outside of existing bone. Evenity doesn't remove old bone, it adds bone. It is a wonderful concept of building a scaffold to protect bones from collapsing. Windyshores speculated that after Evenity, because it builds so much bone quickly, Tymlos or Forteo wouldn't have anything to do.
We sparred. She'd laugh to see how often I quote her. I hope she is lurking and laughing.

Oh wow. Now I’m learning something new. Is that why all the endocrinologists seem to gravitate towards Evenity? Because of the type of bone it builds?
