Whether creatine kinase 400U/L in women is serious or not needs to be combined with the specific cause, if it is caused by physiological factors such as strenuous exercise, it is generally not serious, if it is caused by pathological factors such as acute myocardial infarction, it is more serious.
Creatine kinase is generally found in high levels in skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle, and the normal value for women is 40-200 U/L, while 400 U/L for women is higher than the normal value.
1. Physiological factors: creatine kinase is affected by gender, age, race and other aspects, but also has a certain relationship with exercise, after strenuous exercise creatine kinase can be significantly higher, if women after strenuous exercise creatine kinase reaches 400U / L, generally not serious, can be reduced to normal after rest.
2. Pathological factors: a variety of diseases can cause elevated creatine kinase in women, such as acute myocardial infarction, rhabdomyolysis, progressive muscular dystrophy, etc., which are more serious and may even lead to death, and require active treatment.
If women have creatine kinase 400U/L, after excluding physiological factors, they need to consult a doctor in time to identify the cause and follow the doctor’s instructions to standardize the treatment.
