Can a person live without a liver?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
No, you can not live without a liver. A person can function well on half liver too, moreover, liver can regenerate by itself. It means that even if a person donates half a liver, it will grow back to normal size within few months.

I'm really worried because my SGOT level is 120 and my SGPT level is 222, which I know are really high. I'm an alcoholic, so I'm concerned about how this is affecting my health. What kind of medication or treatment would you suggest for someone in my situation?
Don't worry, penis size is a common concern. Average penis size is around 5-6 inches in length and 4-5 inches in girth. Your height doesn't directly correlate with penis size. There are no proven methods to significantly increase penis size. Focus on overall health and wellness, including exercise, healthy diet, and stress management. Consult a healthcare professional or a urologist for personalized advice and reassurance.
