Doctor: Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query.  I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can.As I see from these findings, there is only slightly elevated SGOT and SGPT and if you dont have any other symptoms and signs, this is not concerning finding. Pthe findings are fine.SGOT and SGPT are  sensitive indicators of liver damage or injury from different types of diseases or conditions but only when elevated more than 60. This still can be normal finding or indicate mild fatty liver or medications intaek that damage liver slighty.  So I would not recommended any further diagnostic tests. All you need to do is to repeat test in 4 weeks and if there is increasing trend of LFts then  ultrasound should be done. Also, have easier dier and avoid alcohol. if such findings persist then beside fatty liver, other causes are viral hepatitis,cirrhosis, medications, alcohol intake or autoimmune diseases may be considered but as I said, at this point this is not concerning sign.I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
