World Hypopara Awareness Day

World Hypopara Awareness Day or World Hypoparathyroidism Awareness Day is observed annually on June 1st.

It is to raise global awareness about hypoparathyroidism—a rare endocrine disorder that affects calcium and phosphorus balance in the body.

This condition arises from insufficient production of parathyroid hormone (PTH), leading to symptoms such as muscle cramps, tingling sensations, fatigue, and cognitive issues. It can result from neck surgery, autoimmune diseases, or genetic factors.
