Brief Summary   Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (IHCP) or obstetric cholestasis is the    pregnancy related liver disorder more commonly occurring in late second and third trimester of pregnancy. Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) is a secondary bile acid synthesized in humans by intestinal bacteria. It is the most effective medical treatment. This  study is being done to see the response after therapy in the form of symptomatic and biochemical relief at 7th and 14th days of treatment with ursodeoxycholic acid and thereafter fortnightly and they followed till delivery to assess the feto-maternal outcome
