About this test

What is this test for?

Abnormal PTH levels may indicate primary hyperparathyroidism, secondary parathyroid changes due to vitamin D deficiency or kidney disease, or other metabolic bone disorders. Results are typically interpreted alongside calcium, phosphate, and vitamin D measurements.


What does this test measure?

PTH is produced by the parathyroid glands and plays a central role in regulating calcium and phosphate balance in the body. The test measures circulating PTH levels, which interact closely with vitamin D and serum calcium.


When is this test recommended?

Parathyroid hormone testing is often performed when investigating abnormal calcium levels, bone density concerns, kidney stones, or suspected parathyroid gland disorders. It may also be used in the monitoring of chronic kidney disease.
