When liver cells die, your body normally replaces them. But if your liver has had to contend with years of alcohol or drug abuse, hepatitis B or C, or long-term exposure to noxious occupational chemicals, your liver cells stop regenerating, and scar tissue and fatty deposits form instead and spread. That’s cirrhosis. As it progresses, blood has a hard time circulating through your liver. Your remaining liver cells become malnourished, and can’t do what they’re supposed to.
