A member asked:

Could hypothyroidism cause high calcium in blood or its just hyperthyroid?

Specializes in Internal Medicine

Extremely rare: Hypothyroidism does not cause high blood calcium levels by itself. Very rarely hypothyroidism can be associated with autoimmune adrenal disease and a small group of patients with auto immune adrenal disease can have hypercalcemia.
