Cirrhosis is the final stage of liver failure, in which the liver has been scarred to the extent that it's capacity to regenerate has diminished/vanished. It is not reversible.
Is Cirrhosis of liver reversible or not?
It is not reversible. Cirrhosis is the final stage of liver failure, in which the hepatocytes (liver cells) have reached a stage of scarring which renders them unable to regenerate healthy, new cells. The treatment for cirrhosis, aside from drugs to relieve symptoms, is a transplant.
Does the liver regenerate after cirohsus?
The liver has a remarkable ability to regenerate, but cirrhosis, which is the late-stage scarring of the liver, can significantly impair this process. While some liver function may improve if the underlying cause of cirrhosis is treated, complete regeneration is unlikely once severe scarring has occurred. In advanced cirrhosis, the liver's architecture is permanently altered, and the risk of complications increases. Therefore, while some regeneration is possible, it is often limited and dependent on the extent of liver damage and ongoing care.
How long do you have to abstain from moderate alcohol consumion to let your liver regenerate?
I don't know what you mean by "regenerate," because human organs do not regenerate themselves. If your liver is functioning normally, the time it will take to let it recover is directly proportional to the stress it's been subjected to by metabolizing alcohol, which depends on your body size, how much and how often you drink. If you have scarring of the liver (cirrhosis), though, this is irreversible and you would be wise to stop drinking altogether because cirrhosis leads to complete liver failure. A good rule of thumb is: If you suspect that you are damaging your liver, you might want to cut back.
