Hi Doctor,

Hello
Fatty changes in liver(fatty liver)may be due to many causes like obesity,sedentary life,hepatitis,altered lipid profile,metabolic disorder etc.
Raised SGOT and SGPT may be due to fatty liver.Fat may cause injury to liver cells.
Fatty liver is due to deposition of fat within the liver cells.
Fatty liver is a reversible condition.It usually reverse with treatment of underlying cause.
You may need investigations like routine hemogram,viral markers,complete liver function test,random blood sugar,lipid profile.
You should avoid saturated fat and go for brisk walk regularly.
I suggest to take tablet ursodeoxychloic acid tablet 300 mg twice daily for three months.It will correct elevated liver enzymes.
Get well soon.
Take Care
