Your SGPT of 134 and SGOT of 90 are both elevated â about 2 to 3 times the normal range â which indicates that your liver is under stress or inflammation. Your bilirubin appears within normal limits, which is a reassuring sign. Common causes of raised liver enzymes include fatty liver disease, viral hepatitis (B or C), certain medications, or excess alcohol intake. This elevation should not be ignored and needs further investigation to find the cause and prevent progression.
Next Steps
Please consult a physician who will advise an ultrasound abdomen and blood tests for hepatitis B and C. Please consult me directly on Practo for a detailed evaluation.

Hi, your SGPT and SGOT are mildly raised, which is common and often due to diet, fatty liver, or recent illness.
Bilirubin is normal.
Improve diet, avoid alcohol,fatty foods, and repeat the test after 4 weeks.
Feel free to consult for further guidance.

raised liver enzyme So advise
Change life style n diet plan drastically other wise it will raise more.

Your SGPT (ALT) 134 U/L and SGOT (AST) 90 U/L indicate a mild-to-moderate liver enzyme elevation, suggesting irritation or inflammation of liver cells.
However, the bilirubin level of 0.18 mg/dL is not concerning and indicates that liver excretory function is currently preserved.
Share your
Height, weight, and waist circumference
History of diabetes, thyroid disorder, high cholesterol, or PCOS
Any recent fever, viral illness, jaundice, or abdominal pain
Alcohol intake (if any)
Current medications/supplements, including herbal products, gym supplements, painkillers, or antibiotics
In women around this age group, one of the common causes is fatty liver associated with metabolic factors, though viral hepatitis, medication-related liver injury, and recent infections should also be considered.
Share the remaining LFT parameters (ALP, GGT, Albumin, Total Protein) and whether you have symptoms such as fatigue, loss of appetite, dark urine, itching, or yellowing of the eyes for more specific guidance.
Next Steps
Avoid alcohol completely until evaluation is complete
Avoid unnecessary painkillers and over-the-counter supplements
Maintain adequate hydration and a balanced diet
Get an Ultrasound Abdomen and repeat LFT after 2–4 weeks

1. SGPT (ALT) & SGOT (AST): Elevated
Your Levels: SGPT is 134 U/L and SGOT is 90 U/L.
What they are: These are enzymes primarily found inside your liver cells. When liver cells are stressed, inflamed, or injured, they leak these enzymes into your bloodstream, causing the numbers to rise.
Interpretation: Normal reference ranges can vary slightly depending on the laboratory, but typical upper limits are usually around 40 to 50 U/L. Your levels are mildly to moderately elevated (roughly 2 to 3 times the upper normal limit). This indicates that your liver is currently experiencing some form of stress or inflammation, but it is not a sign of acute liver failure, which typically sees these numbers climb into the many hundreds or thousands.
2. Bilirubin: Normal
Your Level: 0.18 mg/dL.
What it is: Bilirubin is a yellowish pigment produced during the normal breakdown of red blood cells, which the liver filters and processes.
Interpretation: A normal total bilirubin level is typically anything under 1.2 mg/dL. Your level of 0.18 mg/dL is perfectly normal. This is a positive sign, as it suggests that despite the cellular stress (indicated by the elevated enzymes), the liver is still successfully performing its core filtering and clearance functions.
Common Causes for Elevated Liver Enzymes
Because your bilirubin is normal and the enzyme elevations are mild-to-moderate. These can include:
Fatty Liver Disease: An accumulation of excess fat in the liver cells (very common and highly reversible).
Medications or Supplements: Over-the-counter pain relievers (like acetaminophen), prescription drugs, or certain herbal supplements can strain the liver.
Alcohol Consumption: Regular or recent heavy drinking can cause acute spikes in these enzymes.
Recent Vigorous Exercise: Strenuous workouts can actually cause muscle cells to release SGOT (AST) into the blood.
Viral Infections: Mild or recovering viral infections (including viral hepatitis) can inflame the liver.
Next Steps
Recommended Next Steps
While these numbers are not an emergency, they do require professional follow-up to identify the root cause and ensure they return to normal.

Hello,
Your SGPT (134) and SGOT (90) levels are elevated, indicating mild to moderate liver inflammation or stress. Your bilirubin (0.18) is normal, which is reassuring and does not suggest jaundice.
Common causes include fatty liver, viral infections, medications, alcohol use, or metabolic conditions. Please consult your doctor for further evaluation and consider an ultrasound and repeat liver function tests.
Take care of your liver by avoiding alcohol, staying hydrated, and following a healthy diet.
Next Steps
1. Consult a physician/gastro doctor. 2. Repeat LFT after 7â10 days. 3. Do tests: HBsAg, Anti-HCV, CBC, fasting sugar, lipid profile, ultrasound abdomen. 4. Avoid alcohol, oily food, and unnecessary medicines/herbal supplements. 5. Drink enough water and take light healthy food. Urgent visit if yellow eyes, dark urine, vomiting, fever, severe weakness, or abdominal pain occurs.
