If you're learning that you could be at risk for MASH (metabolic dysfunction–associated steatohepatitis) or have been diagnosed with MASH—you may be asking yourself: What do I do now?
Wherever you are in your MASH journey, you're not alone. SPEAK UP, SPEAK LOUD, and SPEAK NOW.
I could be at risk for MASH.
What should I do?
Start the conversation with your doctor
Remember, symptoms, if present, may not clearly indicate fatty liver disease or progression to MASH. But if you’re being treated for conditions like type 2 diabetes, obesity, high blood pressure, high triglycerides (a type of fat), or low HDL (good cholesterol), it’s important to talk to your health care professional (HCP). Here are some helpful questions you can ask:
- Could I have fatty liver disease or MASH?
- How can I get screened for fatty liver disease or MASH?
- How are fatty liver disease and MASH related?
- How often do I need to be screened for fatty liver disease or MASH?

Timely screening, detection, and management may help prevent progression
When MASH is addressed early, liver damage may be stopped or even reversed.
Fortunately, screening for MASH can be easier than you might think. The first step in checking your liver health is talking with your HCP, who may recommend routine blood tests. If you had bloodwork done at a recent appointment, they may already have some of the information needed to understand your risk.
