I recently had a blood test, and my results show: Aspartate Aminotransferase (SGOT, Photometry): 37.3 U/L Alanine Aminotransferase (SGPT, Photometry): 76.3 U/L The SGPT value is significantly above the upper normal limit. Could this indicate a liver problem? Please advise.

Slightly raised SGPT may suggest mild liver strain. Common causes include fatty liver, medications, or recent infection. Repeat test in 4 weeks and get an ultrasound if symptoms persist.

View allHi, a few months ago I was diagnosed with grade 1 fatty liver with increased echotexture, and my weight was 83 kg. Recently, after treatment for COVID, I had another ultrasound where my liver echotexture appeared normal, but there was a mild increase in liver size. I have also lost 10 kg since then. My liver function tests are normal. Should I be concerned about these findings? I am attaching my report for your review.

Hi, one of my LFT tests shows SGOT as 70 with a reference range of 15 to 37 and SGPT as 200 with a reference range of 16 to 63. Another lab test shows SGOT as 83 with a normal range of 0 to 40 and SGPT as 176 with a normal range of 0 to 36. Can someone please help me understand which values are worse? Is the second lab test worse than the first? Which values are higher?
