The prevalence of gestational PHPT was 2.1% in this largest Indian PHPT cohort, which is higher than that reported from the West (<ā€‰1%). Gestational PHPT can lead to preeclampsia and miscarriage. Pregnant PHPT patients with mild-to-moderate hypercalcemia can be managed with hydration/cinacalcet; however, long-term safety data and large-scale randomized controlled trials are required.
