ALT High - how long till it comes down?

[Angelino123]

How long does it take (on average, I know everyone is different) to bring down liver enzymes (high ALT)? I had my blood work done on April 30th and having another panel done end of June. I'm wondering if I'll see any improvements. I started a diet (to lose weight) which involves, low calorie, veg, lean meats, very few carbs and no alcohol. I've also started taking cycling classes everyday for 20 mins. I will be continuing on this way of living for the foreseeable future for sure

My ultrasound I did almost a month ago said I had mildly enlarged liver and moderate fatty infiltration I have had no further testing Doc told me to keep up what I'm doing and my liver should heal itself in time (although I didn't ask how much time)

Is this a few months thing? Or a 6-12 months?

I've set this as a goal and am basically competing with myself to see if I can get it down lol.

Thanks for listening (reading) to me blabber.

Hi I am similar to you. High ALT and gamma.... 6 months on reduced but not massively so have booked a private consultation with a liver specialist this Wednesday.Everything you read says 3-4 weeks and it goes back to normal but I guess it depends on so many things.

Like you I have ditched the drink since jan and just hope I get some answers Wednesday.

I only had an ultrasound back in nov and that was completely clear not even fatty liver so I’m not sure if it’s just inflamed still and will just take time.

Hi! My ALT was super high when I was diagnosed. Within 6 months it was back in the normal range.
