👉Are the parathyroid glands related to the thyroid? 👉Only in location. 👉The parathyroid glands are usually located next to the thyroid. Para = next to. These tiny glands were discovered before anyone knew what they did, so they were named for their location, rather than their purpose. While they are both endocrine organs, the parathyroids have no connection to what your thyroid. 👉Your parathyroids regulate calcium levels. They are completely separate organs that happen to be located near each other. - Dr. Rodrigo Arrangoiz For more information: https://www.parathyroid.com/parathyroid-function.htm #JAM2019 #CheckYourCalcium #Arrangoiz #ParathyroidExpert #ParathyroidSurgeon #Hiperparatiroidismo #Hipercalcemia #CheckYourCalcium #HeadandNeckSurgeon #EndocrineSurgeon #Hyperparathyrodism #CirujanodeParatiroides #ExpertoenParatiroides #SociedadQuirurgica https://www.instagram.com/p/Bzi5IgOHi0J/?igshid=1egfzsquymmi2
