What does a high alkaline phosphatase level mean if pregnant?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Usually nothing: Alkaline phosphatase is commonly elevated during pregnancy. It is not a sign of a problem, if this is the only elevated liver enzyme. It should return to normal after delivery, and does not need investigation.
