Brief Answer:
Ultrasound scan report?

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

Your SGPT is mildly raised and SGOT not significantly raised. The most common cause is fatty liver disease. The ultrasound report can confirm this.

Kindly upload your ultrasound scan report to see whether you have a fatty liver.

Also, kindly mention what your height and weight is. Sedentary work culture also causes it.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

my height is 5"7 and weight is 82 I guess weight is the prime reason. I did tests at my own no symptoms reported so far. It was just a routine check up. I believe I have to make lifestyle changes
