  5. I am 8 months pregnant and experiencing itching all over my body. My liver function tests (SGOT and SGPT) are slightly elevated. I am taking Actibile 300 Tablet (Ursodeoxycholic acid) as prescribed by my doctor. I experienced the same problem in my first pregnancy, which resolved soon after delivery. Do I need to consult a gastroenterologist, and what should I do?

Mild itching with slightly elevated liver function tests in late pregnancy may be due to pregnancy-related liver changes, such as intrahepatic cholestasis (bile acids buildup in the liver). Continue taking Actibile 300 Tablet (Ursodeoxycholic acid) as prescribed and inform your obstetrician, who will monitor you and your baby. You do not need to consult a gastroenterologist unless liver enzymes rise significantly or symptoms worsen.

  1. Meaning of elevated SGOT and SGPT in pregnancy
  • Slightly elevated serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT) and serum glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (SGPT) may indicate liver stress or intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP), especially with itching.
  1. Use of Ursodeoxycholic acid (Actibile 300)
  • This medication helps reduce itching and improves liver function by treating ICP.
  1. Importance of specialist consultation
  • It is important to have regular monitoring by a gastroenterologist or hepatologist to manage your condition safely.
