Alkaline phosphate comes into the blood as a waste product.  If levels are high it can be an indicator of a problem, but a low number is not indicative of anything. A common reason for an elevated one would be gall stones or a bile duct problem. My Aunt's was very high when she had a gall bladder attack. Don't worry about a low one. Marie

Rosie - not really certain if you are in the right place.  Don't know what that test relates too and if it has anything to do with gynocological functions.
