Parathyroid Hyperplasia
Parathyroid hyperplasia is the growth or enlargement of the parathyroid glands, which are responsible for regulating calcium levels in the body. When these glands enlarge, they can produce more hormone than needed and disrupt the calcium balance.
Common symptoms: fatigue, weakness, bone pain, digestive discomfort, and, at times, the formation of kidney stones.
Common causes: it is usually associated with disturbances in calcium metabolism or with other diseases that stimulate the glands.
Which specialist treats it? The endocrinologist studies the functioning of the parathyroids, and the general surgeon steps in for cases that require surgery; in minors the pediatric endocrinologist takes part. If you have symptoms related to calcium, it is advisable to have them evaluated by a professional.
