This test measures a substance called parathyroid hormone (PTH) in your blood. PTH is made by four tiny parathyroid glands in your neck. PTH circulates in your blood and is needed to regulate the level of calcium in your blood.
When calcium levels are low, the parathyroid glands increase PTH production. When the calcium levels are high, the glands slow secretion of PTH. Sometimes doctors need to measure how much PTH is in your blood.Because of the relationship between calcium and PTH in the blood, often both are tested at the same time.arathyroid hormone (PTH), also known as parathormone, is a hormone released by the parathyroid glands.
