Is alpha-fetoprotein 32 high?

Alpha-fetoprotein 32ug/L is on the high side. 1. Alpha-fetoprotein is a serum glycoprotein formed by the yolk sac and liver in early fetal life, and the synthesis of alpha-fetoprotein is inhibited soon after birth. The reference value of alpha-fetoprotein is 0-20ug/L, so alpha-fetoprotein 32ug/L is high. 2. Elevation of alpha-fetoprotein to 32ug/L is common in the following cases: (1) Primary hepatocellular carcinoma: most patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma usually have greater than 300ug/L, but some patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma have only mildly elevated alpha-fetoprotein. (2) Diseases such as germinal gland embryonic tumor, stomach cancer, pancreatic cancer, etc., the level of alpha-fetoprotein in blood will also be elevated. (3) In viral hepatitis and cirrhosis of the liver, alpha-fetoprotein is also elevated, but not to a large extent. (4) AFP is elevated during pregnancy, but most of the time it is less than 400ug/L. If AFP is elevated during pregnancy, it is not elevated in the blood. If you have elevated alpha-fetoprotein, please go to the hospital to avoid delay and adverse health effects.
