Hello, thanks for using health care magic.
Elevated liver transaminases indicate injury to liver cells which could be due a transient or chronic affection and mild or severe liver affections. Causes of elevated transaminases include hepatotoxic drugs such acetaminophen, hepatitis, alcohol, obesity, fatty liver, myositis, muscular dystrophy, liver tumours etc.
Oestrogen which you must have taken in the medicine that you used to regulate your menses is known to possibly elevate levels of liver function tests.
However, detail examination and investigations have to be made in order to be sure of what is the problem; you will need to see your doctor (not necessarily a gastroenterologist for now) as such for an examination and for further testing such as markers for hepatitis, CBC etc as the case may be following the examination.
Best regards and hope this helps
