The thyroid gland produces calcitonin which lowers blood calcium levels and the parathyroids produce parathyroid hormone which increases blood calcium levels.
The parathyroid glands produce and secrete parathyroid hormone which regulates calcium levels in the blood. Since it increases blood calcium levels, it promotes the function of osteoclasts, which reduce the calcium in bones and promote its increase in the blood stream.
The body's calcium level is regulated by a gland in the endocrine system, it is called the Parathyroid Gland.
The Parathyroids Gland.
Regulates calcium in the blood.
"The amount of calcium in the blood is regulated by two organs: thyroid and parathyroid glands. Each gland produces hormones by sensing the amount of calcium in the blood. When calcium is high in the blood, the thyroid gland produces calcitonin, which results in the removal of excess calcium from the blood. When calcium is low in the blood, the parathyroid gland produces parathyroid hormone, which causes the release of calcium from bone into the blood."

Regulates calcium in the blood.
The parathyroid glands are located behind the thyroid gland and are often accidentally removed with the thyroid in a thyroidectomy. The parathyroid gland makes parathyroid hormone (PTH), which normally causes an increase in blood calcium levels. If the parathyroid is lost, so is the PTH, and thus the blood calcium is lower.
thyroid gland
Do you mean an endocrine gland that can lower calcium level? If this is your question, the answer is thyroid gland. It produdes calcitonin that lowers calcium level opposing the effect of parathyroid gland which increases calcium level.If you mean, a condition that is characterized by low level of calcium in blood, it is called hypocalcemia.
