Hello,

ASt and ALT are liver enzymes with a normal value less than 40 IU/mL for females. Although the level of both ALT and AST is slightly high, however, it is unlikely to interfere with conception.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Shailja Puri, Pathologist and Microbiologist
