The Parathyroid Profile is a comprehensive set of blood tests tailored to assess the functioning of the parathyroid glands, which are vital for maintaining the balance of calcium and phosphorus in the body. Available at an affordable price in Pune with Tata 1mg labs, this profile includes testing of key parameters such as parathyroid hormone (PTH), calcium, phosphorus, and vitamin D levels. Together, these tests provide valuable information for doctors to evaluate and manage disorders related to parathyroid function and mineral metabolism. 

The Parathyroid Profile can be done when individuals exhibit symptoms related to calcium, phosphorus, and vitamin D imbalance, such as persistent bone pain, impaired kidney function, long-term digestive problems, pain or discomfort in joints, muscle weakness, etc. Overnight fasting for at least 8-12 hours is needed before undertaking the Parathyroid Profile. However, drinking water before the test is acceptable. PTH is released in a rhythmic pattern, with increased levels during the night; therefore, you may need to take the test at a certain time of day.

What does Parathyroid Profile measure?

Contains 4 tests

The Parathyroid Profile includes a series of blood tests that help evaluate the health and function of parathyroid glands. This profile measures the levels of parathyroid hormone (PTH), calcium, phosphorus, and vitamin D in the blood. 

PTH helps maintain calcium balance by influencing its absorption from the intestines, release from bones, and reabsorption by the kidneys. This hormone ensures that calcium concentration in the blood remains within a normal range, supporting various essential physiological functions such as bone health, nerve transmission, and muscle contraction. PTH acts on the kidneys, not only promoting the reabsorption of phosphorus from the urine back into the bloodstream but also stimulating calcium release from bones. This dual action indirectly impacts phosphorus levels, as calcium and phosphorus are closely linked to bone metabolism. Moreover, PTH stimulates the production of active vitamin D in the kidneys, enhancing calcium absorption from the intestines. This intricate interplay between PTH and vitamin D is critical for maintaining calcium homeostasis in the body. 

The Serum Calcium test measures the calcium level in your blood. Most of your body’s calcium (about 99%) is stored in bones and teeth to keep them strong. The rest (1%) circulates in the blood and helps your muscles move, nerves work, blood to clot, and heart to keep a steady rhythm.

Calcium in blood comes in two forms:

  • Bound calcium, attached to proteins like albumin
  • Ionized (free) calcium, which is active and helps many body functions

This test measures total calcium (both bound and ionized). This test cannot show if you have enough calcium in your diet. It also cannot detect bone diseases like osteoporosis. The body keeps blood calcium levels steady. It does this by taking calcium from bones during mild shortages.

The Phosphorus, Serum test is used to evaluate the level of phosphorus in your blood. Phosphorus is an inherent component of all living cells in the system and most, 85 percent, is located in the tissues of bones and teeth, while the remaining 15 percent is part of the blood and other soft tissues. Your body obtains its daily phosphorus requirements through dietary sources and under normal conditions, once the necessary amounts of phosphorus are absorbed by the cells and tissues, the remaining is eliminated via the urine.

Besides consuming a wholesome diet enriched with sufficient amounts of phosphorus, it is also important to ensure ample intake of calcium and vitamin D, to maintain overall health.

The Vitamin D (25-Hydroxy) test measures the levels of vitamin D in the body. Vitamin D is an essential nutrient that can be synthesized in the body upon healthy exposure to sunlight or absorbed from dietary sources. It exists in two forms: vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol) and vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol). Vitamin D2 is present in plants, such as yeast or mushrooms, and is available as a supplement in fortified foods. Vitamin D3 is found in foods like cheese, green vegetables, mushrooms, egg yolks, and fatty fish.

Both forms of vitamin D need to be converted in the liver and kidneys before the body can use them effectively. This test shows the total level of vitamin D (D2 + D3) circulating in the body and guides your doctor in recommending the right treatment or lifestyle changes if needed.
