Hyperparathyroidism
Hyperparathyroidism is a condition characterized by the overactivity of one or more of the parathyroid glands, resulting in excessive production of parathyroid hormone (PTH). This hormone regulates calcium, phosphate, and vitamin D levels in the blood and bones. Elevated levels of PTH lead to hypercalcemia (high calcium levels), which can cause a range of health issues.
