Relevant hormonal tests suggested.
Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir,
I understand your concern.
Many of your gut symptoms are directly related to Non alcoholic fatty liver/NAFL.
Weight reduction,Diet management and Regular Exercise are the corner stones in resolving NAFL.
You possibly seem to have significant hormonal disturbance pertaining to male breast appearance.
I advise you the following hormonal evaluation.
1. Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels
2. Luteinizing hormone (LH) levels
3. Prolactin levels
4. Testosterone levels
5. Thyroid function
6. Estradiol levels.
Further management is based on the test results.
Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.

Relevant facts provided.
Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir,
I understand your concern.
Instead of medicines, I advise you to try out non pharmacological measures initially to improve your gut function and weight loss.
1.Take oat meal for breakfast and as supplement dish for dinner.
2.Avoid fried and fatty food stuff completely.
3.Consume egg white and soy protein.
4.One Pomegranate a day.
5.Regular brisk walk or jogging or swimming at least 20-30 min /day.
6.Drink at least 3 liters of water a day.
Make sure you have above measures for at least 6 months before you try medications.Most of the individuals will respond to these measures alone.
To improve digestive function with enzyme supplementation.I usually recommend Syrup Aristozyme to my patients.I advise you to check this with your doctor if his views are same and if can prescribe them to you.
Yes you can directly mention the same names of the tests to your lab staff.They will understand them and offer you the required services.
