@mayblin Is OC Osteocalcin? Why do you prefer this graph over the one showing CTX and P1NP? What is the source of these graphs.

If these graphs are correct, I need to re-think what I thought I understood about osteroporosis.

Yes, OC is osteocalcin. I’m posting the bone marker changes during alendronate therapy here again, side by side for easy comparison. The right side shows resorption markers CTX (orange line) and NTX, while the left side shows bone formation markers BSAP, OC, and P1NP (cobalt blue line). Click the graphs for the full legend.

This review paper “The bone remodeling cycle” by Kenkre:
https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/0004563218759371
is quite insightful and helped me understand bone remodeling. You might find it helpful too.
