Hypoparathyroidism is a disorder caused by a deficiency of parathyroid hormone (pth), resulting in low levels of calcium in the blood, and increased levels of phosphorus. it is usually caused by damage to the parathyroid glands, either through surgery, radiation, or autoimmune disorders. it can also be caused by genetic mutations that affect the parathyroid glands or the body's ability to respond to pth. symptoms may include muscle cramps, numbness or tingling in the hands and feet, fatigue, depression, and seizures. treatment typically involves calcium and vitamin d supplements, and medications to help the body use calcium more efficiently.
