    Glossary Hyperparathyroidism

    condition where parathyroid glands overproduce hormone regulating calcium levels

    Hyperparathyroidism is a condition where the parathyroid glands produce too much parathyroid hormone (PTH). This hormone regulates calcium levels in the blood, and its overproduction can lead to elevated calcium levels, potentially causing symptoms like bone pain, kidney stones, fatigue, and depression. There are two main types: primary hyperparathyroidism, often caused by a benign tumor on the gland, and secondary hyperparathyroidism, usually resulting from another condition like chronic kidney disease.
