Suggest Remedy For High SGPT And SGOT Levels
Hi doctor, I have high sgpt and sgot now 3 days after delivery. The itching started before giving birth and at that time their levels were normal. I still have itching but is less than before. Normally how many days after delivery should sgpt and sgot be back to normal? The baby girl seems ok, I am feeding her with breast. What can be the risk for me and for her? Thank you in advance

hello madam,
congratulation for the baby.
now coming to your problem about raised SGOT and SGPT.
the most common cause of itching and raised liver enzymes is cholistasis of pregnancy. this condition is treated conservatively with ingestion of high glucose and Tab Ursocol 300 mg twice a day for 15 days.
but before starting this you have to rule out other causes with help of ulrasonography.
