Frequently asked questions

What does a raised SGPT/SGOT mean?

Raised liver enzymes indicate the liver is irritated — commonly fatty liver, alcohol, hepatitis or medicines. A hepatologist finds the cause and advises treatment.

Is fatty liver reversible?

Often yes — early fatty liver improves with weight loss, exercise, controlling sugar and cutting alcohol. Left unchecked it can progress, so it is worth acting on.
