Hello,

A raising level of liver function tests in terms of SGPT, SGOT, GGT and abdomen pain indicates possible hepatitis with Hepatitis-C or E virus (later is very much common and having high problematic profile during pregnancy. I would recommend to get consultation with expert Infectious disease specialist after discussion of same with your OBGYN to get best results after evaluation of certain antibodies level, ultrasound of the liver and else.

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