July is Parathyroid Awareness Month (#PAM)! Normal parathyroid glands are tiny – like a grain of rice. A parathyroid adenoma can be the size of a large blueberry or even a grape! #CheckYourCalcium #PAM2026 @AACE @Paratroupers
Are you getting enough calcium? Here is an easy-to-use online calculator: https://t.co/6Tqh0GcsGA. If you have primary hyperparathyroidism, ask your doctor about supplements. #CheckYourCalcium #PAM2025 @TheAACE @ParaTroupers1 @TheEndoSociety

🧬 Is Primary Hyperparathyroidism Hereditary?
In most cases, primary hyperparathyroidism is not inherited—meaning it doesn’t run in families. Many patients have no family history of the condition and no involvement of other hormone-producing glands. #PAM2025 #CheckYourCalcium
Primary hyperparathyroidism was first described in the 1930s. Patients had high calcium and severe bone/kidney complications. Since the 1970s we measure calcium routinely on blood tests and discover this disease much earlier! #CheckYourCalcium #PAM2025 @ParaTroupers1
International Parathyroid Awareness Day! This day commemorates Sir Richard Owen's birth in 1804. He is renowned for his discovery of the parathyroid glands in the Indian Rhinoceros back in 1852. #CheckYourCalcium #PAM2025 @TheAACE @ParaTroupers1 @TheEndoSociety
Primary hyperparathyroidism impacts about 1 in every 1,000 males and 2 to 3 in every 1,000 females. It predominantly occurs in individuals above the age of 50. #CheckYourCalcium #PAM2025 @TheAACE @ParaTroupers1 @TheEndoSociety
Measuring urine calcium in patients with hyperparathyroidism can help to predict the risk of developing kidney stones. Kidney (renal) ultrasound can identify silent kidney stones. #CheckYourCalcium #PAM2025 @TheAACE @ParaTroupers1 @TheEndoSociety
Parathyroid cancer is very rare—seen in less than 1% of people with high calcium and PTH levels.
But when it does occur, it often presents with:
🔹 Very high calcium (often >14 mg/dL)
🔹 Extremely elevated PTH
🔹 A large parathyroid tumor

🦴 Your parathyroid glands are small but mighty!
PTH boosts calcium by:
✅ Increasing kidney & bone absorption
✅ Activating vitamin D
✅ Enhancing gut calcium uptake
When PTH is off, your calcium may be too causing primary hyperparathyroidism!

Most people have 4 parathyroid glands that are located close to the thyroid. The upper (superior) parathyroid glands are located deeper in the neck, while the lower (inferior) parathyroid glands are more towards the front of the neck. #CheckYourCalcium #PAM2025 @ParaTroupers1

PHPT's impact on joint symptoms and joint replacement outcomes in patients with OA is unclear. Consistent screening and referral for evaluation of PHPT is a critical first step that is often missed. #CheckYourCalcium #PAM2024

Most mammals including humans, dogs, and cats have 2 pairs of parathyroid glands (4 glands in total). Rats only have 1 pair of parathyroid glands (2 glands in total). #CheckYourCalcium #PAM2024 @TheAACE @ParaTroupers1 @TheEndoSociety
Primary hyperparathyroidism is significantly under-treated. This study using a US database showed that most patients – even if they meet a standard indication for surgery – are not treated with parathyroidectomy. #CheckYourCalcium #PAM2024 @TheAACE @ParaTroupers1 @TheEndoSociety
Osteoporosis increases the risk of bone fracture. Older adults with primary hyperparathyroidism who have parathyroidectomy have a lower risk of hip and other fractures compared to those who do not have surgery. #CheckYourCalcium #PAM2024 @TheAACE @ParaTroupers1 @TheEndoSociety
Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia (MEN) is a genetic syndrome that affects multiple endocrine organs. Almost all patients with MEN1 develop primary hyperparathyroidism, compared to 20% of patients with MEN2a. #CheckYourCalcium #PAM2024 @TheAACE @ParaTroupers1 @TheEndoSociety
