Brief Answer:
Raised SGPT may indicate liver injury.

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Raised SGPT may indicate liver injury.It may be due to many reasons like hepatitis,alcohol intake,altered lipid profile,medicines,auto immune causes etc.

You may need few more investigations like routine hemogram,random blood sugar,viral markers,lipid profile,urine RE/ME.

You are rightly suggested to take tablet ursodeoxycholic acid twice daily for two months.It helps in regeneration of liver cells.

You should avoid alcohol if you take it.

Mild fatty liver is a reversible condition and it may be due to obesity,sedentary life style,hepatitis,alcohol intake etc.
You should increase your physical activity and go for brisk walk regularly.

Don't worry at all.This is a manageable and common condition.

Get well soon.
