What are the reasons for high globulin in pregnant women?

During pregnancy, women usually go to the hospital for a test to check their own globulin levels. If the globulin value is high, it means that the pregnant woman's liver is not healthy and she may have hepatitis. At this time, the doctor will often ask you to do further examinations in order to find out the disease and prescribe the right medicine. Globulin values ​​are generally related to liver function. So what is the reason for high globulin levels in pregnant women?

Liver function tests are an understanding of the patient's own condition, allowing you to understand your condition earlier so that targeted treatment can be taken, allowing patients to have a healthy body earlier and get rid of the pain and suffering brought by the disease. , gamma globulin will increase in almost all liver and gallbladder diseases. If gamma globulin continues to rise without other explanations, it often means that the condition has worsened and has turned into chronic hepatitis or cirrhosis. In severe hepatitis, gamma globulin may increase significantly. When the liver is inflamed, α1 globulin will increase, which means the condition is mild. α2 globulin can reflect the severity of hepatitis lesions. In the early stages of viral hepatitis, α2 globulin mostly remains normal. As the disease progresses, it will gradually increase. When liver cancer, cholestasis and increased blood lipids occur, α2 will increase accordingly. β-globulin tends to increase in cholestatic liver disease. From the above, we can see that high globulin is closely related to liver disease. When globulin increases, that is, globulin>35g/L, it is called hyperglobulinemia. It is more common in the following diseases:

(1) Chronic liver disease: including autoimmune chronic hepatitis, chronic active hepatitis, cirrhosis, chronic alcoholism

liver disease, primary biliary cirrhosis, etc.; the degree of globulin increase is related to the severity of liver disease.

(2) M-globulinemia: such as multiple myeloma, lymphoma, primary macroglobulinemia, etc.

(3) Autoimmune diseases: such as systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatic fever, rheumatoid arthritis, etc.

(4) Chronic inflammation and chronic infection: such as tuberculosis, malaria, kala-azar, leprosy and chronic schistosomiasis, etc.

So after the above introduction, we know the reason why pregnant women have high globulin levels, and we also know what diseases will occur when the globulin levels are high. After all, pregnant women are carrying babies, so physical health is particularly important. Therefore, if the globulin value is high, further detailed examinations must be carried out to clarify the condition so that timely treatment can be carried out.
