The thyroid gland secretes both of these. Thyroxine or T4 is the most prevalent secretion of the thyroid - it is the inactive form of tri-iodothyronine (T3) which is important for regulation of metabolism. T3 and T4 are secreted by the follicular cells. Calcitonin is secreted by the parafollicular cells of the thyroid gland and acts to decrease blood calcium levels.
Calcitonin in secreted by parafollicular cells in the thyroid gland.
Sorry, wrong question.
Calcitonin is the hormone.
It is manufactured in and released from the parathyroid gland.
The thyroid gland secretes T3, T4 and calcitonin.

No,it does not produce.Thyroid produces hormone Calcitonin.
The Thyroid Gland secretes Calcitonin.
The parathyroid hormone is secreted directly from the parathyroid gland. The thyroid gland secretes calcitonin.
Thyroid gland secretes/ makes calcitonin. Parathyroid gland maintains calcium (and phosphate) balance with calcitonin. Sounds weird but that's what it does.
Calcitonin is a 32-amino acid linear polypeptide hormone which is secreted in human beings primarily by the parafollicular cells (also known as C-cells) of the thyroid, it regulates calcium levels in the body
Mainly thyroxine, though it also secretes triiodothyronine (better call it T3, it's easier to spell) and calcitonin.
Parafollicular cells of the thyroid gland produce calcitonin.

No. Thyroid Gland.Calcitonin normally acts to restrain excessive bone loss during Pegnancy and lactation.
thyroid gland secretes calcitonin which stimulates cell uptake by bones thus decreasing the blood calcium level

The main hormone produced here is thyroxine, which controls metabolism in our cells.
