I'm really concerned about my ALTSGPT level, which is at 91.5. I've been taking liver supplements, eating healthy, drinking lots of water, and exercising regularly, but nothing seems to be working. Can you help me understand why it's still high and what else I might be missing in my approach?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
While lifestyle changes like a healthy diet, regular exercise, avoiding alcohol, and staying hydrated can significantly improve liver health and help lower ALT levels, it is essential to identify the underlying cause with the help of your healthcare provider. Following a comprehensive treatment plan that includes the right medications, supplements, and lifestyle adjustments is key to managing liver function.

My dad's HbsAg test came back positive, so it looks like he's got Hepatitis B. I'm really worried about what this means for his health. Can you please help us understand what our next steps should be for treatment and how we might cure this?
Hepatitis B is a viral infection that affects the liver. While there is no cure for Hepatitis B, treatment focuses on managing the symptoms and preventing complications. Antiviral medications such as Entecavir or Tenofovir are commonly prescribed to help reduce the viral load in the body and slow down the progression of the disease. It's important for your father to follow up with a healthcare provider regularly for monitoring and to discuss the best treatment plan for his specific situation.
