What causes high Monocytes and low GGT?

High Monocytes and low GGT can be caused by many reasons.

If your Monocytes is in between 2 % and 10 % and your GGT is in between 15 U/L and 85 U/L then you need not worry as these are the normal ranges for Monocytes and GGT respectively. But if your levels are lesser or greater than the above values, then there may be some problem in your body.

Some examples of conditions that can increase or decrease Monocytes levels include:

• Bone marrow damage or failure
• Collagen vascular diseases
• Inflammatory bowel disease
• Infection within the heart
• Chronic infections

Normal range of Monocytes : 2 - 10 %

High Monocytes and low GGT can be caused by a lot of reasons. If you take Monocytes and GGT blood tests and the results are higher than 10 % for Monocytes and lower than 15 U/L for GGT, your physician may recommend more tests to figure out the problem. You might also get these tests if your physician thinks you have some other disease.
