Bloodwork shows tc= 331 hdl=134 ldl=180 tri=83 what do you think?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Lipids: I recommend a repeat testing of your lipid profile. These show a very high "good cholesterol" which mitigates somewhat your total cholesterol. LDL of 180 is elevated and most experts would recommend trying to lower it with lifestyle changes rather than medications if you're a young woman. Reduce saturated fat intake, embark on an exercise program, lose weightand recheck your lipid levels in 6 mon
