Hi there,
your SGOT and SGPT are minimally raised, If you does not have any symptoms then this is not a cause of concern but I would advise you to consult your physician to know the cause of raised liver enzymes. This may be because of overweight,high cholesterol level,recent viral infection, alcohol intake or recent use of some medication. your physician may advise you an ultrasonography of abdomen and repeat your liver function after 1-2 weeks.

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.

Wishing you good health
