Slightly raised ALT

Posted , 2 users are following.

Hiya

I've recently had a blood test and it's come back that my liver enzymes have slightly raised!

Was just wondering if anyone knows that it could be because I've recently come of the contraceptive depo injection?

I've had an ultrasound too and that was all normal.

Thanks for your help in advance!

    Hi Gemma, I would ring your DR's an ask which one/ones are raised because they can Al point to different reasons, mostly benign

      Nothing wrong with being a worrier, we all do, just some a bit more than other's.

      I'm thinking you should go DR's just to talk it over and stop you worrying, but I'm sure it will be something that can be reversed quite easily.

      Are you on any other meds OTC or prescription
