Detailed explanation-1: -The parathyroid glands lie behind the thyroid. They produce parathyroid hormone, which plays a role in regulating the body’s blood level of calcium and phosphorus. Hyperparathyroidism is when your parathyroid glands create high amounts of parathyroid hormone in the bloodstream.

Detailed explanation-2: -Parathyroid glands produce parathyroid hormone, which plays a key role in the regulation of calcium levels in the blood.

Detailed explanation-3: -The parathyroid glands are four tiny glands located behind the thyroid gland. The parathyroid glands produce a substance (parathyroid hormone) that helps control the amount of calcium in the blood. Current as of: September 8, 2021.

Detailed explanation-4: -Parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels are mainly controlled by a feedback loop of calcium levels in your blood to your parathyroid glands. In other words, low calcium levels in your blood stimulate parathyroid hormone release, whereas high calcium levels in your blood prevent your glands from releasing parathyroid hormone.

Detailed explanation-5: -Parathyroid hormone comes from four parathyroid glands in the neck, just behind the thyroid. These glands receive feedback from blood calcium levels to determine when they need to secrete the hormone.
