Overview
Secondary prevention of primary hyperparathyroidism includes monitoring for potential progression of disease in patients who do not undergo parathyroidectomy. There are guidelines for monitoring of patients with asymptomatic hyperparathyroidism not undergoing parathyroidectomy.
Prevention
Secondary prevention of primary hyperparathyroidism includes monitoring for potential progression of disease in patients who do not undergo parathyroidectomy. There are guidelines for monitoring of patients with asymptomatic hyperparathyroidism not undergoing parathyroidectomy.
If you choose to monitor symptoms, some recommendations for prevention include [2]:
- Exercise, specifically weight and strength training are beneficial. This helps in the process of decreasing bone loss and building stronger bones.
- Vitamin D - Adequate amounts of vitamin D aid in calcium absorption. Sources of vitamin D come from the foods you eat, sunlight, and from vitamin supplemants.
