Hello. Thanks for asking on Healthcaremagic. Alt is a liver enzyme and has nothing to do with thyroid hormone disorders. Mostly it can rise due to subtle viral infections and come to normal on its own. In case of fatty liver it might remain high. It is indicative of hepatic cellular injury and inflammation. I suggest you relax and keep a lookout on any symptoms like darkening of urine or yellowness of eyes. And get tested after a month. Hope I helped. Thanks
