Liver enzymes and total serum proteins after low dose oral contraceptive pill use

ABSTRACT

Serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase, Transaminase, Alkaline Phosphatase, Glutamyl transferase and total serum proteins and their electrophoretic analysis were determined in 60 women using low dose or and oral contraceptive pills for a variable period of time and 20 women without pill use. There was a non significant increase in serum Glutamic pyruvic transaminase, Alkaline phosphatase and alpha - Glutamyl transfer in pill users compared with the nonusers. Serum proteins showed a non significant decrease in pill users compared with the non users. Meanwhile, serum proteins electrophoresis demonstrated a significant decrease in albumin and a significant increase in globulins
