What is Parathyroid Gland Physiology Overview about?

The parathyroid glands are small endocrine glands located behind the thyroid gland that secrete parathyroid hormone (PTH). PTH regulates calcium and phosphate levels in the blood by increasing their resorption from bone and kidneys and absorption from the intestines. Conditions of excessive or deficient PTH secretion can lead to hypercalcemia or hypocalcemia respectively and impact multiple organ systems.
