parathyroid hormone replacement therapy

Parathyroid hormone (PTH) replacement therapy is used to treat osteoporosis and certain cases of hypoparathyroidism, conditions where calcium regulation is impaired. PTH helps control calcium and phosphorus levels in the body by stimulating bone remodeling, increasing calcium absorption in the intestines, and reducing calcium loss through the kidneys. This therapy involves administering synthetic PTH via injections, aiming to restore natural hormone balance and improve bone strength. It is typically prescribed when other treatments are insufficient. Regular monitoring by healthcare providers ensures proper dosage and manages potential side effects, optimizing bone health and calcium regulation.
