When the blood calcium is low, the bones in the body release calcium to supplement it. This is a condition which is known as hypocalcemia.
Low blood calcium evokes a response from the parathyroid gland, which releases parathyroid hormone (PTH). PTH acts to increase blood calcium levels by stimulating calcium release from bones, increasing calcium absorption in the intestines, and decreasing calcium loss through the kidneys.
Low blood calcium. Calcitonin decreases blood calcium therefore it would result in an even lower amount of calcium.
parathyroid hormone (PTH) is released in response to low blood calcium levels. It acts to increase calcium levels by promoting calcium release from bones, increasing calcium absorption in the intestines, and reducing calcium loss in the kidneys.

"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."
Hypocalcemia is the condition resulting from abnormally low levels of calcium in the blood.
Medication won't be given for low blood calcium until further studies are done. The health care provider must determine if the problem is inadequate supply, bad hormone control, or excessive excretion of calcium.
Hypokalemia (hypokalaemia) is a low level of potassium in your blood. Hypocalcemia (hypocalcaemia) is a low level of calcium in your blood. This can possibly result in cardiac dysrhythmias.
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.
the release of parathyroid hormone (PTH) from the parathyroid gland. This hormone acts to increase calcium levels in the blood by promoting the release of calcium from bones, increasing calcium absorption in the intestines, and reducing calcium excretion in the kidneys.
