Is pregnancy complicated with liver injury serious?

Patient's question:

Pregnant for 6 and a half months, Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) 180: Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) 99. All hepatitis B and C tests are normal. Had an ultrasound, diagnosis: increased liver speckles, enhanced echo. I don't know why, asked the doctor, she didn't say anything either. Just looked at Ligan Long Granules and Yin Zhi Huang Granules. Can I take them?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, factors or causes that can lead to elevated transaminase levels may include viral hepatitis such as hepatitis A, B, C, and D, alcoholic liver disease, fatty liver disease, autoimmune hepatitis, drug-induced hepatitis, gallstones or intrahepatic bile duct stones, etc. The most common ones are hepatitis B and C, as well as alcoholic liver disease. Other factors include poor rest and taking cold medicine. In some cases, the cause remains unknown. You have ruled out hepatitis B and C, which at least excludes the most common contagious ones.
Advice: You can refer to the above situation and try to rule out some factors yourself. If you can't rule them out, you don't need to worry about it. Regarding the medication for pregnancy, it may not be ideal. I suggest you take silymarin and Attomoran tablets, as these two medications are relatively safe. Eat more fruits and vegetables, avoid overexertion, and don't get angry. Regularly follow up on liver function tests.
