If your Parathyroid Hormone is low
PTH below the range is commonly associated with high calcium from other causes or reduced parathyroid activity.
Commonly associated with
- High calcium
- Reduced parathyroid activity
- Magnesium level
If your Parathyroid Hormone is high
PTH above the range is commonly associated with low vitamin D, kidney function or an overactive parathyroid gland; it is always read with calcium.
