TYPES :-

Basically, there are three types of hyperparathyroidism :

• Primary hyperparathyroidism : This hyperparathyroidism occur from the oversecretion of parathyroid hormone due to the disease of parathyroid gland.
• Secondary hyperparathyroidism : This secondary hyperparathyroidism is caused due to the disease in other parts of the body.
• Tertiary hyperparathyroidism : It develops from the secondary hyperplasia after removal of the cause of secondary hyperplasia.

SYMPTOMS :-

Signs and symptoms of hyperparathyroidism are as follows :-

• Osteoporosis
• Kidney stones
• Excessive urination
• Abdominal pain
• Tiring easily or weakness
• Depression or forgetfulness
• Bone and joint pain
• Frequent complaints of illness with no apparent cause
• Nausea, vomiting or loss of appetite

TREATMENT :-

Medications to treat hyperparathyroidism are as follows :

• Calciminimetics : A calciminimetic is a drug that mimics calcium circulating in the blood. The drug may trick the parathyroid gland into releasing less parathyroid hormone. This drug is sold as cinacalcet (Sensipar).
• Hormone replacement therapy :  It is given to the women who have gone through menopause and have signs of osteoporosis, hormone replacement therapy may help bone to retain calcium.
• Biophosphates : They also prevent the loss of calcium from bones and may lessen osteoporosis caused by hyperparathyroidism.
