Hi, Just had blood tests. My alt is 32 and my AST is 28. I have been treated for uterine cancer 3 years ago. I have an over active thyroid, under dr. care. I am overweight but have been exercising and have lost 15 pounds. Why are my ALT and AST higher than before, 18, 21?
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. In my opinion you should not worry much about your slightly elevated STOP (AST) and SGPT (ALT). Since you are obese, possibility of fatty liver is more. This is due to excess body fat which is accumulating in the liver. And cause fatty liver. This can give slightly alteration in liver function and cause slight elevation of ALT and AST. No treatment is required except weight loss and exercise. So continue exercise and avoid oily, fatty and junk food. Eat healthy food. Repeat ALT and AST after 2 months.
