Hello,
Elevated levels of SGPT can be because of few reasons , regular alcohol consumption and, you should also get your thyroid levels, cholesterol levels, sugar levels, viral markers (Hepatic B or Hepatic C) tested, and in case all of these are normal , you have to consult your doctor, get further evaluated to rule out other possibilities.Hope I could help you.
Thank you.
