Abstract
Hypoparathyroidism is a disorder rarely observed during pregnancy. It poses a major challenge in managing a patient appropriately to prevent maternal and fetal complications. We report a case of a 21-year-old gravid woman, a diagnosed case of hypoparathyroidism. She was successfully treated with calcium and calcitriol before pregnancy. Dosage was adjusted according to serum calcium values, and she delivered a healthy baby with normal serum calcium level.
