Familial Hypocalcemia

Familial hypocalcemia is a rare, inherited condition where the body keeps blood calcium too low even when the person eats and absorbs enough calcium. It usually happens because a calcium sensor in the parathyroid gland is “too sensitive,” so the gland releases less parathyroid hormone (PTH). Less PTH lowers blood calcium and can raise urine calcium, which may hurt the kidneys over time. Two main genetic types are ADH1 (CASR gene) and ADH2 (GNA11 gene). MedlinePlus+1 In most people, the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) tells the parathyroid gland when to release PTH. In ADH, the receptor or its helper protein is overactive, so it tells the gland “calcium is high” when it is not. PTH falls, the kidneys leak calcium into urine, and blood calcium stays low. This can cause numbness, muscle cramps, seizures, and kidney problems if not managed carefully. NCBI+1

Familial hypocalcemia is an inherited condition in which the level of calcium in the blood is persistently lower than normal from birth or early life. In many families, the low calcium happens because the body’s calcium-sensing system is set too “sensitive,” so it mistakenly thinks calcium is already high and turns off hormone signals that normally raise calcium. The most common form is called autosomal dominant hypocalcemia (ADH). In ADH type 1, a gene called CASR (calcium-sensing receptor) is “overactive”; in ADH type 2, a downstream signaling gene called GNA11 is “overactive.” Both changes reduce parathyroid hormone (PTH) signaling, so calcium stays low and phosphate often rises. People can have tingling, muscle cramps or spasms (tetany), seizures, or no symptoms at all; some have kidney calcium loss and kidney stones because the kidneys are told to excrete more calcium. Genetic testing and a set of simple bedside and lab tests confirm the diagnosis. PMC+2New England Journal of Medicine+2

Other names

• Autosomal dominant hypocalcemia (ADH) — umbrella term for the common familial forms. PMC

• ADH1 (CASR-related hypocalcemia) — due to activating mutations in the CASR gene. People often have low/normal PTH with hypercalciuria (high urine calcium). PMC

• ADH2 (GNA11-related hypocalcemia) — due to activating mutations in GNA11, part of the CaSR signaling pathway. New England Journal of Medicine

• Familial hypoparathyroidism (selected genetic subtypes) — some families have lifelong low calcium from inadequate PTH secretion (e.g., PTH, GCM2, TBCE variants); clinical picture overlaps with familial hypocalcemia. (Background and overlap discussed in hypoparathyroidism reviews.) NCBI+1

• Hypocalcemia with hypercalciuria due to CaSR activation — descriptive label sometimes used in reports. PMC

Types

1) Autosomal Dominant Hypocalcemia Type 1 (ADH1)
Caused by activating CASR variants. The receptor becomes hypersensitive to calcium, suppressing PTH and increasing urinary calcium losses. Labs commonly show low total/ionized calcium, inappropriately low/normal PTH, high phosphate, and increased urine calcium. PMC

2) Autosomal Dominant Hypocalcemia Type 2 (ADH2)
Caused by activating GNA11 variants (Gα11), a key signal partner of the CaSR. The pathway downstream of CaSR is over-signaled, producing a very similar biochemical picture to ADH1. New England Journal of Medicine+1

3) Familial hypocalcemia from isolated hypoparathyroidism genes
Some families have chronic hypocalcemia because the parathyroid glands do not make or release enough PTH. Genes can include PTH, GCM2, and others; signs and labs overlap with ADH because PTH is low. (Grouped here because many clinicians encounter “familial hypocalcemia” under the broader hypoparathyroidism umbrella.) NCBI

Note: The inherited pseudohypoparathyroidism group causes PTH resistance (high PTH with low calcium); that is a different familial disorder but can be part of the genetic work-up to explain familial hypocalcemia-like symptoms. NCBI

Causes

1. CASR activating variants (ADH1) — the calcium sensor is too sensitive, so PTH turns “off” early; kidneys waste calcium → low blood calcium, high urine calcium. PMC

2. GNA11 activating variants (ADH2) — the signal after CaSR is amplified; effect mirrors ADH1 with low/normal PTH and possible hypercalciuria. New England Journal of Medicine

3. PTH gene variants (isolated hypoparathyroidism) — parathyroid hormone itself is insufficient or abnormal, so calcium cannot be maintained. NCBI

4. GCM2 variants — a transcription factor needed for parathyroid development; underfunction leads to low PTH and low calcium. NCBI

5. TBCE variants (Kenny-Caffey spectrum) — can cause congenital hypoparathyroidism with short stature and bone features; results in lifelong hypocalcemia. NCBI

6. SOX3/other developmental regulators — rare X-linked or developmental defects that impair parathyroid formation/function, causing low calcium from birth. NCBI

7. AIRE variants (Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndrome type 1) — autoimmune loss of parathyroid tissue (familial/clustered) leads to chronic hypocalcemia. NCBI

8. DiGeorge spectrum (22q11.2) — familial or recurrent microdeletion; parathyroid underdevelopment causes neonatal or fluctuating hypocalcemia. (Included as a familial/syndromic cause.) NCBI

9. CaSR promoter or regulatory changes — very rare; overexpression can mimic activating variants with hypocalcemia and hypercalciuria. (Mechanistic extension of CaSR pathway.) PMC

10. Gα11 pathway hyperactivation (non-coding regulatory variants) — rare functional changes near GNA11 may upregulate signaling; phenotype similar to ADH2. New England Journal of Medicine

11. Parathyroid aplasia/hypoplasia in familial syndromes — inherited developmental anomalies that reduce PTH production, keeping calcium low. NCBI

12. Familial autoimmune hypoparathyroidism (non-AIRE) — clustered autoimmunity against parathyroid tissue within families; persistent low calcium. NCBI

13. GNAS-related disorders (contrast diagnosis) — classically PTH resistance with high PTH; included because some families present with hypocalcemic symptoms and require this to be ruled out. NCBI

14. PRKAR1A/PDE4D (acrodysostosis with hormone resistance) — rare; may present with complex calcium/PTH signaling issues and needs exclusion in a familial work-up. NCBI

15. Parathyroid destruction after familial neck surgery pattern — e.g., MEN-related thyroid surgery clustering; postsurgical hypoparathyroidism may run in families due to shared risks.

16. Familial magnesium-handling defects (modifier) — low magnesium states in some inherited tubulopathies can suppress PTH release and maintain low calcium.

17. Familial vitamin D activation defects (modifier) — rare defects in 1α-hydroxylase activation or receptor function can contribute to low calcium presentations that mimic familial hypocalcemia.

18. Bartter-like phenotypes with CaSR activation — CaSR activation can produce renal salt wasting with urine calcium loss in severe neonatal cases. PMC

19. Compound genetic causes — more than one mild variant (e.g., CaSR + vitamin D pathway) can combine to keep calcium low in families.

20. Unidentified familial loci — families with multiple affected members but no known variant yet; genomic testing is recommended per guidelines for persistent, unexplained hypocalcemia. Society for Endocrinology+1

Common symptoms and signs

1. Tingling and numbness around the mouth and in fingers/toes — a classic early clue of low calcium affecting nerve excitability. NCBI

2. Muscle cramps — aching or cramping in hands, feet, calves because nerves fire too easily when calcium is low. NCBI

3. Carpopedal spasm (Trousseau sign) — the hand and wrist curl when a blood pressure cuff is inflated for a few minutes; shows hidden (latent) tetany from hypocalcemia. NCBI+1

4. Facial twitch (Chvostek sign) — tapping the cheek over the facial nerve causes twitching when calcium is low. New England Journal of Medicine

5. Tetany — sustained, painful muscle spasms from very low calcium; can be generalized. NCBI

6. Seizures — brief staring spells or convulsions may occur, especially in children; low calcium lowers the seizure threshold. NCBI

7. Laryngospasm/bronchospasm — throat or airway muscle spasm causing stridor or shortness of breath during severe hypocalcemia. NCBI

8. Fatigue and weakness — low calcium disturbs muscle and nerve function, causing heavy limbs and low energy. NCBI

9. Mood or cognitive changes — irritability, anxiety, or trouble concentrating can accompany chronic low calcium. NCBI

10. Headaches — sometimes linked to neuromuscular irritability from persistent hypocalcemia.

11. Dry skin or brittle nails — chronic mineral imbalance can affect skin appendages in long-standing hypocalcemia.

12. Tooth enamel issues (if childhood onset) — enamel can form abnormally when calcium is low during development.

13. Eye problems over time — lens clouding (cataracts) has been reported with chronic hypocalcemia and hypoparathyroidism. Endotext

14. Kidney stone symptoms — flank pain or blood in urine due to hypercalciuria (especially in ADH1/ADH2). PMC

15. Growth or development concerns in some children — short stature or intracranial calcifications have been reported in GNA11-related ADH. PMC+1

Diagnostic tests

A) Physical examination (bedside)

1. Chvostek sign — tap the facial nerve; a twitch is a quick check for neuromuscular irritability from low calcium. It is not perfectly sensitive or specific but is quick and harmless. New England Journal of Medicine+1

2. Trousseau sign — inflate a blood pressure cuff on the arm for ~3 minutes; carpopedal spasm suggests latent tetany. Helpful when symptoms are subtle. NCBI

3. Neuromuscular exam — look for muscle cramps, spasms, and reflex changes; helps grade severity and need for urgent calcium replacement. NCBI

4. Airway assessment — listen for stridor or wheeze (laryngospasm/bronchospasm) in acute hypocalcemia; severe cases are emergencies. NCBI

B) Manual/functional tests

5. Hyperventilation provocation (careful clinical use) — in supervised settings, hyperventilation can transiently lower ionized calcium and reproduce paresthesias, supporting a hypocalcemic tendency; not a routine test but historically described.

6. Grip/repetitive muscle testing — sustained grip may reproduce cramps in latent tetany; complements Chvostek/Trousseau signs.

7. Blood pressure cuff “ischemia test” (variant of Trousseau) — prolonged forearm ischemia can bring out carpopedal spasm when calcium is low. NCBI

C) Laboratory & pathological tests

8. Serum total calcium and albumin — cornerstone test; correct for albumin to estimate biologically relevant calcium. Persistent low values raise suspicion for familial causes.

9. Ionized calcium — best reflects active calcium; confirms true hypocalcemia when total calcium is borderline.

10. Parathyroid hormone (intact PTH) — in familial hypocalcemia/ADH, PTH is inappropriately low or normal (should be high if the body were responding normally). This pattern separates ADH from most other causes. PMC

11. Serum phosphate — often high when PTH is low; supports a PTH-deficient picture. Endotext

12. Serum magnesium — low magnesium can suppress PTH and worsen hypocalcemia; correctable and important to measure in all patients. NCBI

13. 25-hydroxyvitamin D — rules out vitamin D deficiency, which can coexist and deepen hypocalcemia.

14. 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D — can be inappropriately low in hypoparathyroidism because PTH drives its production; helps complete the biochemical picture. Endotext

15. Urine calcium/creatinine ratio (spot) or 24-hour urine calcium — often high in ADH because CaSR overactivity pushes kidneys to waste calcium; this finding is a hallmark difference from many other hypocalcemic states. PMC

16. Genetic testing panel (CASR, GNA11, PTH, GCM2, TBCE, and others) — confirms the exact familial form, informs counseling, and guides management (e.g., avoiding overtreatment that worsens hypercalciuria in ADH). Current guidelines endorse DNA analysis in persistent hypoPT/hypocalcemia where etiology is unclear. Society for Endocrinology+1

D) Electrodiagnostic & cardiac/brain studies

17. Electrocardiogram (ECG) — low calcium can prolong the QT interval; baseline and follow-up ECGs are useful, especially if symptoms are severe. (Recognized across hypocalcemia references.) Endotext

18. Electroencephalogram (EEG) — in patients with seizures or spells, EEG helps evaluate seizure activity and response after calcium correction.

19. Electromyography (EMG)/nerve conduction studies — rarely needed, but can document neuromuscular hyperexcitability in atypical cases or research settings.

E) Imaging

20. Renal ultrasound (or CT if needed) — looks for nephrocalcinosis or kidney stones when urine calcium is high (a risk in ADH). Documenting complications guides how aggressively to target serum calcium. PMC

Other imaging sometimes used:

• Brain CT/MRI — may show basal ganglia or intracranial calcifications in long-standing hypocalcemia, reported in familial forms including ADH2. PMC

• Ophthalmology exam — screens for cataracts in chronic hypocalcemia/hypoparathyroidism. Endotext

Non-pharmacological treatments

1. Education and symptom action plan.
   Learn early signs of low calcium (tingling, cramps) and when to take rescue calcium and seek care. Education reduces ER visits and helps avoid over-treatment that raises urine calcium. PMC

2. Dietary calcium at recommended daily intake (not excessive).
   Use normal dietary calcium for age; avoid very high calcium diets that can raise urine calcium in ADH. Diet supports bone and neuromuscular function without pushing hypercalciuria. PMC

3. Adequate magnesium intake.
   Low magnesium can worsen hypocalcemia and muscle symptoms. Ensure dietary magnesium (greens, nuts) and correct deficits because magnesium helps PTH release and action. NCBI

4. Hydration strategy.
   Steady fluid intake helps reduce kidney stone risk when urine calcium is high; avoid dehydration, especially during illness, heat, or exercise. PMC

5. Illness (“sick-day”) rules.
   During vomiting/diarrhea, absorption of calcium/vitamin D drops. Simple sick-day plans (fluids, monitoring, when to seek IV calcium) prevent severe symptoms. NCBI

6. Trigger avoidance for tetany.
   Sudden high-intensity exercise, hyperventilation, or panic can trigger spasms in severe hypocalcemia. Gradual warm-ups and breathing control can help. NCBI

7. Kidney protection habits.
   Limit very high sodium and high-oxalate foods if stones occur; regular urine and renal imaging checks as advised to catch stones early. PMC

8. Medication review.
   Avoid or monitor drugs that can worsen hypocalcemia (loop diuretics) or raise urine calcium. Share ADH diagnosis with all prescribers. PMC

9. Bone health lifestyle.
   Weight-bearing exercise within limits, fall prevention, and nutrition help bone density; avoid smoking and excess alcohol. NCBI

10. Pregnancy planning.
    Plan care before pregnancy; tight calcium targets reduce maternal symptoms and fetal risks. Close monitoring is essential. PMC

Drug treatments

Important: No drug below is FDA-approved specifically for “familial hypocalcemia/ADH.” We use standard hypocalcemia tools carefully to relieve symptoms while trying to limit urine calcium. Doses are individualized and must be managed by a clinician. PMC

1) Calcitriol (oral, active vitamin D).
Class: Active vitamin D analog. Typical dose: often 0.25–1.0 mcg/day in divided doses (individualize). Timing: daily. Purpose: Raise intestinal calcium absorption to improve symptoms. Mechanism: Acts like active vitamin D (1,25-dihydroxy D) to increase calcium absorption. Cautions: Can increase urine calcium and kidney risks—use the lowest effective dose with thiazide and monitoring. Label source: Rocaltrol® label. FDA Access Data

2) Calcitriol (IV) for acute care.
Class: Active vitamin D (injectable). Use: Adjunct in hospital during severe symptomatic episodes after IV calcium; helps maintain calcium once stabilized. Mechanism/notes: Same as oral; used when gut absorption is unreliable. Risks: Hypercalcemia/hypercalciuria if excessive. Label source: CalciJex® (calcitriol injection). FDA Access Data

3) Calcium gluconate (IV) for crises.
Class: Parenteral calcium. Dose: Hospital protocols (e.g., slow IV bolus/infusion) with ECG monitoring. Purpose: Rapidly raise ionized calcium in seizures, laryngospasm, or severe tetany. Mechanism: Directly increases serum ionized calcium. Risks: Tissue injury if extravasated; caution with digoxin. Label source: Calcium gluconate injection label. FDA Access Data+1

4) Oral calcium salts (e.g., calcium carbonate/citrate).
Class: Oral calcium. Dose: Split doses with meals; the smallest dose that relieves symptoms. Purpose: Symptom control. Mechanism: Supplies absorbable calcium. Risks: Kidney stone risk if overused in ADH. Evidence context: Standard of care in hypocalcemia; use cautiously in ADH. (No single FDA label covers all OTC salts; approach guided by hypocalcemia references.) NCBI+1

5) Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ).
Class: Thiazide diuretic. Dose: Often 12.5–25 mg/day; adjust. Purpose: Reduce urine calcium to protect kidneys and allow lower vitamin D/calcium doses. Mechanism: Increases distal tubular calcium reabsorption. Risks: Low potassium, low sodium, dehydration; avoid in pregnancy unless indicated. Label source: Hydrochlorothiazide labels (Microzide®, HCTZ tablets). FDA Access Data+1

6) Amiloride (add-on to thiazide in some patients).
Class: Potassium-sparing diuretic. Dose: Often 5–10 mg/day; adjust. Purpose: Helps maintain potassium when using thiazides; may modestly lower urine calcium. Mechanism: Blocks epithelial sodium channels in distal nephron. Risks: Hyperkalemia (especially with kidney disease). Label source: Midamor® label. FDA Access Data

7) Magnesium sulfate (IV) for severe hypomagnesemia).
Class: Parenteral magnesium. Use: Corrects low magnesium that worsens hypocalcemia. Mechanism: Restores PTH release/action. Risks: Must infuse slowly; have IV calcium available if toxicity. Label source: Magnesium sulfate injection labels. FDA Access Data+1

8) Ergocalciferol or cholecalciferol (precursor vitamin D).
Class: Nutritional vitamin D2/D3. Purpose: Maintain normal 25-OH vitamin D; does not replace active vitamin D in ADH but supports overall health. Risks: Excess can raise calcium/urine calcium. Label/source: FDA product-specific guidances and combination-label materials (reflecting D3 information). FDA Access Data+1

9) Teriparatide (PTH 1-34) — off-label rescue/bridge in selected adults.
Class: Recombinant PTH analog. Use: Not approved for hypocalcemia; sometimes used off-label in complex hypoparathyroidism when standard therapy fails; data in ADH are limited and careful specialist oversight is required. Mechanism: Replaces PTH actions, raising calcium and lowering phosphate. Risks: Label boxed warnings and duration limits for osteoporosis. Label source: Teriparatide labels (FORTEO®; Teriparatide Injection). FDA Access Data+1

10) Investigational: Encaleret (calcilytic).
Class: CaSR antagonist (investigational). Use: In trials, normalized calcium and reduced urine calcium in ADH1. Status: Not FDA-approved for ADH at last publication; use only in clinical studies. Mechanism: Blocks overactive CaSR signaling. Risks: Research setting monitoring. Evidence source: NEJM correspondence and company summary of Phase 2b results. PubMed+1

Dietary molecular supplements

Caution: In the U.S., most supplements are not FDA-approved drugs. Quality varies. Discuss any supplement with your clinician, and avoid excess calcium or vitamin D without supervision, because ADH patients can develop kidney problems from high urine calcium. AMA Journal of Ethics

1. Normal dietary calcium intake through foods, not mega-doses; supports bones and nerves while avoiding spikes in urine calcium. PMC

2. Magnesium (dietary) from greens, nuts, legumes helps muscle and nerve function; test blood magnesium before adding pills. NCBI

3. Vitamin D3 (low-dose nutrition only) to keep 25-OH vitamin D sufficient; active vitamin D still required in many cases. PMC

4. Citrate-rich fluids (e.g., lemon water) may lower stone risk in some patients by increasing urinary citrate (adjunct only). PMC

5. Low-oxalate diet pattern if stones present (spinach, rhubarb, nuts moderation) to reduce calcium-oxalate stone risk. PMC

6. Moderate sodium intake because high salt can increase urine calcium; dietitian guidance helps. PMC

7. Adequate fluids to keep urine dilute and lower stone risk. PMC

8. Balanced protein intake (avoid very high-protein fad diets) to reduce calciuria risk. PMC

9. Avoid very high vitamin A (supplement megadoses) which can affect bone. NCBI

10. Limit over-the-counter antacids with high calcium unless your clinician tells you to take them. PMC

Immunity booster / regenerative / stem-cell drugs

There are no FDA-approved “immunity-booster,” regenerative, or stem-cell drugs for familial hypocalcemia/ADH. Using such products for this disease would be experimental and should be avoided outside regulated clinical trials. Care focuses on symptom control, kidney protection, and—when available—participation in trials for CaSR-targeted therapies. PMC+1

---

Surgeries

Surgery is not a standard treatment for familial hypocalcemia, because the problem is a genetic “thermostat” in calcium sensing, not a removable gland problem. Operations enter the picture only to treat complications (for example, urologic procedures for stones). Routine parathyroid surgery is not recommended for ADH. PMC

---

Practical preventions

1. Keep a written plan for symptoms and rescue steps. PMC

2. Take the lowest effective doses of calcium and active vitamin D to control symptoms. PMC

3. Use thiazide therapy (if prescribed) to reduce urine calcium and protect kidneys. PMC

4. Maintain hydration, especially in hot weather and illness. PMC

5. Moderate salt intake to lower urine calcium. PMC

6. Monitor labs regularly (calcium, phosphate, magnesium, creatinine) and 24-hour urine calcium as advised. PMC

7. Get periodic renal ultrasound if you have hypercalciuria or stone history. PMC

8. Carry medical identification noting “Autosomal Dominant Hypocalcemia (ADH).” PMC

9. Plan pregnancy care with an experienced team. PMC

10. Ask about clinical trials (e.g., calcilytics) in centers that manage ADH. PMC

---

When to see a doctor

Seek urgent care for seizures, severe muscle cramps or spasms, trouble breathing (laryngospasm), or new confusion—these can be signs of very low calcium. Contact your clinician promptly for tingling around the lips/fingers, new kidney stone pain, or if you cannot keep medicines down due to vomiting/diarrhea. Routine follow-up is important to check blood and urine and protect your kidneys. NCBI

---

What to eat

Eat: balanced meals with normal calcium (dairy or fortified alternatives), magnesium-rich foods (leafy greens, nuts, legumes), plenty of water, fruits/vegetables, and adequate protein. Avoid/limit: very high-salt foods, very high-oxalate foods if you form stones, mega-doses of calcium or vitamin D without medical guidance, and dehydration. These choices support symptom control and kidney safety. PMC

FAQs

1) Is familial hypocalcemia the same as hypoparathyroidism?
They share low calcium, but in familial hypocalcemia the calcium sensor over-signals; PTH is inappropriately low, and urine calcium tends to be high with standard therapy. PMC

2) How is it confirmed?
Blood and urine tests plus genetic testing for CASR (then GNA11 if needed). Orpha

3) Why don’t doctors aim for “high-normal” calcium?
Because pushing calcium too high increases urine calcium and kidney risks; targets are usually low-normal. PMC

4) Can I just take more calcium tablets?
No. In ADH, more calcium can worsen kidney issues; dosing must be careful and personalized. PMC

5) Are there medicines that fix the sensor?
Calcilytics like encaleret block the overactive sensor and are promising in trials, but they are not yet FDA-approved for ADH. PubMed

6) Are thiazide diuretics safe?
They can help reduce urine calcium but need monitoring for blood pressure and electrolytes. FDA Access Data

7) Do I need active vitamin D?
Often yes, but at the lowest dose that controls symptoms, to limit kidney risks. FDA Access Data+1

8) What about PTH injections?
Teriparatide is approved for osteoporosis, not hypocalcemia; off-label use in special cases needs expert care. FDA Access Data

9) Can children be affected?
Yes—this is inherited. Pediatric teams familiar with ADH should manage dosing and kidney monitoring. PMC

10) Will I always have symptoms?
Good plans can control symptoms well, but lab and urine checks remain important. PMC

11) Is pregnancy possible?
Yes, with careful planning and close monitoring to protect mother and baby. PMC

12) How often are labs checked?
Your clinician decides, but regular checks of calcium, phosphate, magnesium, creatinine, and urine calcium are typical. PMC

13) Can I play sports?
Usually yes; warm up, hydrate, and know your warning signs. NCBI

14) Are supplements safe?
Discuss all supplements first; many are not FDA-approved drugs, and some can raise urine calcium or interact with medicines. AMA Journal of Ethics

15) Where can I read clinical guidance?
See the international update on hypoparathyroidism care and Endotext’s hypocalcemia chapter. PMC+1
