parathyroid hormone therapy

Parathyroid hormone (PTH) therapy is a treatment used to help increase calcium levels in people with severe osteoporosis or hypoparathyroidism. It involves administering a synthetic form of PTH, a hormone that regulates calcium and phosphorus in the body. By stimulating bone formation, PTH therapy can strengthen bones and reduce fracture risk. It is typically given as a daily injection under medical supervision. This therapy is used when other treatments are insufficient, providing a targeted approach to improve bone density and maintain healthy calcium levels.
