Gilbert's syndrome

Overview for Dietary and Lifestyle or Treatment info see links at bottom

This syndrome affects about 2-6% of the population and is usually noted at birth. It is unusual for the mother to present any symptoms during pregnancy, but occasionally abdominal pain is complained of, loss of appetite or fatigue. The only presenting sign is a yellow skin (jaundice). Fortunately the main liver functions remain unaffected, the yellowish colour being due to a disorder affecting the pigments of bile (bilirubin) which is produced in the liver.
