Hypercalcemia may be caused by: Overactive parathyroid glands. The most common cause of hypercalcemia, overactive parathyroid glands (hyperparathyroidism) may stem from a small noncancerous tumor on one or more of the four parathyroid glands.
What Causes Hypercalcemia? Your body regulates the calcium level in your blood through the parathyroid hormone (PTH), and another hormone called calcitonin. Normally, PTH increases when the calcium level in your blood falls and decreases when your calcium level rises. Your body also makes calcitonin when your calcium level gets too high. When you have hypercalcemia, your body canât regulate your calcium level as it normally would.
