Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is a hormone that your parathyroid glands make and release to control the level of calcium in your blood by increasing it. PTH also helps control the levels of phosphorus (a mineral) and vitamin D (a hormone) in your blood and bones.
Detailed explanation-2: -Parathyroid hormone or PTH PTH is produced by four small glands adjacent to the thyroid gland. These glands precisely control the level of calcium in the blood.
Detailed explanation-3: -Calcitonin is involved in helping to regulate levels of calcium and phosphate in the blood, opposing the action of parathyroid hormone. This means that it acts to reduce calcium levels in the blood.
