frnd here is your answer
Calcium metabolism is affected by three hormones. They are parathyroid hormone, vitamin d and calcitonin(which only has a minor effect). Parathyroid hormone and vitamin D increase circulating calcium, whereas calcitonin acts to reduce it. Calcium is introduced to the body through the diet and is found particularly in dairy products. Most diets will contain a sufficient daily intake of calcium. The body’s main calcium stores are in the bones, although calcium can be found to some degree in most parts of the body.

Explanation:

When blood calcium levels are low, your parathyroid glands (four pea-sized glands in your neck usually behind the thyroid) secrete a hormone called parathyroid hormone (PTH). PTH helps your bones release calcium into the blood. Vitamin D is also important in keeping calcium levels in the normal range.
