Brief Answer:
Mostly Intrahepatic Cholestasis of Pregnancy.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for writing to us.
I have reviewed her attached Liver Function Test report. It reveals ELEVATED liver enzymes - SGPT and Alkaline Phosphatase. However, other parameters are within NORMAL range.
At this stage, underlying cause could be Intrahepatic Cholestasis of Pregnancy. It should be treated properly. Serum bile acid and coagulation profile should be done as follow-up tests.
TREATMENT: Ursodeoxycholic Acid (like UDILIV) is the DRUG of choice to treat the presenting condition. Kindly, consult with her doctor for complete prescription.
Hope, it helps for your information. Kindly, close the discussion if you don't have any other query.
Wish her good health and successful motherhood.
Regards,
Dr S Patra
