Question

I'm a bit concerned about my liver function test results. My SGPT value is 49, bilirubin total is 1.66, and bilirubin indirect is 1.47. The fibrosis value with liver stiffness is 6.3. Should I be worried about these numbers? What steps should I take next?

Folic acid is typically taken in micrograms (mcg), not milligrams (mg). The recommended dosage is: - 400 mcg for the first three months of pregnancy - 600 mcg from four to nine months - 500 mcg during lactation It's essential to consult a gynecologist before taking any medications, including folic acid supplements like Vitafol.
