What happens to your body as you lose blood? What happens that makes you die when you lose too much blood? If you lose enough blood that you have to have a transfusion are there side effects (from losing the blood not from getting other blood)? Could you end up in a coma from blood loss, if it were severe enough?
Parathyroid Gland and Kidney Stones. The parathyroid glands are four tiny glands located within the thyroid gland in the neck. They produce parathyroid hormone, which helps control the amount of calcium in the blood. If your parathyroid gland is too big (enlarged), it can cause your body to produce too much parathyroid hormone (hyperparathyroidism). This may lead to too much calcium in the urine, which makes it more likely that you will have calcium kidney stones.
1 Parathyroid hormone regulates the bodyâs calcium levels. 2  There are four parathyroid glands, and they are each about the size of a grain of rice. 3  Though theyâre located near each other, the parathyroid glands are not related to the thyroid gland.he thyroid gland regulates the bodyâs metabolism, while parathyroid glands regulate calcium levels and have no effect on metabolism. Parathyroid Hormone. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) has a very powerful influence on the cells of your bones by causing them to release their calcium into the bloodstream.
