What Does Low Liver Enzymes In Fetus During Pregnancy Indicate?
my daughter in law is approximately 5 months pregnant. her doctor told her that the baby s liver enzymes are low. what could this mean? he said he would be performing stress tests and that it could mean the baby would be small, but im wondering what else this could possibly indicate?

Hello,
It means that the baby is suffering from something. There is maybe not enough amniotic fluid, or the cord is tangled or other reason that can be understood by further testing. The local doctors will follow her up and understand what is going on.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
