Brief Answer:
Normal Liver functions
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking
I read your question and i understand your concern. ALT has reference range of 20 - 60 and AST has reference range of 8-40 in women. So your labs are ok . We don't consider it worrisome unless these are double the upper limit of normal, for example ALT of minimum above 100 and AST of above 80 .
I hope it helps. Take good care of yourself and dont forget to close the discussion please.
