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.

I recently had my LFT done, and my test report shows higher than normal values for SGOT (AST) and SGPT (ALT). I would like to know the possible causes and how to bring these levels back to normal.

My blood report shows: Serum cholesterol: 226 Serum triglyceride: 121 HDL cholesterol: 45 VLDL cholesterol: 24 LDL cholesterol: 156 Cholesterol/HDL ratio: 4.96 The doctor has prescribed Atoder 10 tablets. I am 27 years old. Should I take this medicine, and are there any disadvantages? I had jaundice in 2012.

Yesterday I did blood transfusion since low blood level. After that doctors identified I am suffering with jaundice. They are saying nothing to worry. Please suggest me on the below report. Are the report results dangerous?
