��ɫtv Langone doctors manage hyperparathyroidism based on the severity of the condition. They consider calcium levels, kidney function, and whether hyperparathyroidism is causing complications, such as osteoporosis���ǰ� kidney stones.

If you have mild hyperparathyroidism, your doctor may choose to observe and monitor the condition—called watchful waiting—and suggest measures to limit bone loss, including osteoporosis medication if needed.

In people with secondary hyperparathyroidism, the body produces too much parathyroid hormone because calcium levels in the blood are low.

��ɫtv Langone endocrinologists and nephrologists—doctors specializing in kidney care—first try to manage the underlying cause of this condition, which may be due to a kidney condition or a vitamin D deficiency.

They may also prescribe medication or vitamin D supplements to lower parathyroid hormone levels in people with secondary hyperparathyroidism.
