I recently received my blood test report, which shows elevated liver enzymes, SGPT is 91.0 U/L and SGOT is 51.0 U/L. I would like to know what could be causing this, whether it is risky for my health, and how I can reduce these levels safely. Please suggest what steps I should take.

These levels indicate mild liver inflammation. Causes may include fatty liver, medications, or infections. Avoid alcohol and fatty foods. Increase water intake and consult a doctor for liver health guidance. Usg Abdomen, LFT and Hepatitis Panel is advised.

I am experiencing nausea and occasional loose motions. My liver function test report shows SGPT at 23 U/L, SGOT at 29 U/L, total bilirubin at 1.4 mg/dL, direct bilirubin at 0.9 mg/dL, and indirect bilirubin at 0.4 mg/dL. Do these results indicate jaundice?

I am 4 months pregnant. In the first trimester I was taking 100 mg folic acid and everything was normal. Due to my transfer I had to change my doctor and she started 500 mg folic acid for me. As a result in only 15 days my LFT report has given me a shock. Here is my report. SGOT 193 U per L. SGPT 257 U per L. GGTP 65 U per L. ALP 338 U per L. Bilirubin direct 0.60 mg per dl. I have always lived a disease free life with no medical issues or medicines till date. Please help?
