What hormone controls levels of calcium in blood and helps maintain balance of phosphorus?

Parathyroid hormone (PTH), released by the parathyroid gland; and calcitonin, released by the thyroid gland, control the levels of phosphorus in the body. Most of the phosphorus in the body is stored in the form of phosphate (PO4) attached to calcium in the skeletal systems to form calcium phosphate [Ca3(PO4)2]. When PTH is released, excess phosphate is released into the urine and calcium is released from the skeletal system into the bloodstream. The calcitonin plays its part by helping form calcium phosphate molecules, where they become part of a mineral matrix in the bone. Because of the relationship between PTH and calcitonin, calcium and phosphate maintain proportionally inverse levels in the blood.
