I'm a bit concerned about my latest USG report. It mentions hepatomegaly with mild fatty changes, grade 1, and also notes that my uterus is bulky. I'm not really sure what this means for my health. Could this be something serious or is it fairly common? Would love to understand what steps I might need to take or any lifestyle changes that could help.

Gut sensitivity: Your gut may be sensitive to certain foods or temperatures, leading to digestive issues.
