    How is Hyperparathyroidism prevented?

    To prevent the development of this condition, it is important to take certain preventive measures such as:

    • People suffering from hyperparathyroidism must include appropriate levels of calcium and vitamin D in their diet.
    • Drink a lot of fluids
    • Exercise regularly and lose weight
    • Decrease smoking and tobacco consumption
    • Avoid taking drugs that may raise calcium levels in the body.

    What is the treatment for Hyperparathyroidism?

    The treatment strategies for this condition include:

    • Calcimimetics: They mimic the calcium circulating in the blood to trick the glands to release less PTH.
    • Hormone replacement therapy: Hormone replacement therapy may help bones retain the required amount of calcium. This therapy is exclusively for women.
    • Bisphosphonates: They prevent the loss of calcium from bones which in turn reduces the pain and prevents other complications.
    • Surgery: In severe cases of hyperparathyroidism, doctors may suggest surgery. In the surgery, the glands that are enlarged or have a tumor are removed.

    Our team of experts at Yashoda Hospitals Hyderabad study the case and suggest the best treatment strategies which are customized as per the patient’s condition. Our services and successful treatment cases in the past few years have made us one of the top hospitals in Hyderabad.
