Is AST SGOT 190 high, normal or dangerous? What does Aspartate aminotransferase level 190 mean?

📅 Medical Review Date: April 11, 2026

AST SGOT 190

Your AST SGOT level of 190 is a High AST SGOT level.

An AST SGOT level of 190 U/L usually means liver cells are damaged or injured. It suggests liver stress. High levels of AST SGOT can cause fatigue, weakness, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, dark urine, and yellowing of skin. This can be caused by viral hepatitis, alcohol abuse, fatty liver disease, muscle injury, or heart attack. Further tests are often needed to identify the cause and guide appropriate treatment.

High AST SGOT levels may indicate underlying health problems. The normal range is typically between 15 U/L and 37 U/L. If your levels are outside this range, it's important to speak with a healthcare provider. Consulting a doctor is recommended to determine the cause and appropriate next steps.

Misdiagnosis is more common than people think—and the consequences can be serious. Delayed treatment, unnecessary medication, or worse. If you want a second opinion on your blood work, one option is to upload it to a site like wholebodyprotocol.com, where world-class doctors review your results. They charge a small fee—around $90 (though you'll want to check the latest price as it fluctuates)—and email you a detailed report. With over 12 million people affected by misdiagnosis every year, that little bit of extra peace of mind can go a long way.
