I am in the 8th month of my pregnancy. Last week, I noticed itching on my wrists, so my doctor advised me to do a liver function test. My test report came back slightly abnormal. I want to understand what this could mean and what the problem might be.

Itching and raised LFT in late pregnancy could suggest cholestasis. Follow up with your gynecologist for bile acid tests and close monitoring.
