Hypoparathyroidism Symptoms - What Is Hypoparathyroidism - Hypoparathyroidism Treatment

Hypoparathyroidism is a disorder in which insufficient parathyroid hormone (PTH) is secreted from the parathyroid glands, resulting in abnormally low levels of calcium in the blood. The parathyroid glands are four pea-sized glands located next to the thyroid gland in the neck; they secrete PTH, which regulates the level of calcium in the blood.
