A member asked:
They say an early liver fibrosis is reversed (with no altered structure) once the underlying cause is removed. does the reversal of fibrosis happen itself or with the help of medicines? i mean, does the liver reverse the fibrosis itself?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The liver to a great extent could self heal when the cause of injury is removed; it may take a few years however. The liver could regenerate without need of any medication.
