Can Chemotherapy Cause Elevated SGOT And SGPT Levels?

Hi
I just finished 6 chemotherapy treatments ( 3 weeks apart) for fallopian tub cancer. The treatment is the same as is for ovarian SGOT is 48 and my SGPT is 94. Could the elevated numbers be due to the chemotherapy? Whats your opinion on this?

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Your liver enzymes level are slightly increased. It may be due to chemotherapy ot may be due to some other cause like alcohol, viral infection or toxins. No need to worry. No any treatment is required right now.
Just repeat your liver enzymes level after a month. Mostly it will come back to normal.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
