Hypoparathyroidism

Hypoparathyroidism or hypoPT is a relatively rare metabolic bone disease in which the body produces very low levels of parathyroid hormone (PTH). PTH is needed to balance the levels of calcium and phosphorus. Hypoparathyroidism results in a combination of very low levels of calcium in the blood, known as hypocalcemia, and very low or undetectable levels of parathyroid hormone.
