Hyperlipidemia (High Cholesterol)

What Is Hyperlipidemia?

Hyperlipidemia refers to elevated levels of lipids in the blood, including cholesterol and triglycerides. When untreated, it can contribute to plaque buildup in the arteries, increasing the risk of heart attack and stroke.

Why Monitoring Matters

Routine lipid panel testing helps track cholesterol levels and identify imbalances early. High LDL (bad cholesterol) or low HDL (good cholesterol) can silently raise heart disease risk over time, even in the absence of symptoms.

Managing High Cholesterol

High cholesterol treatment includes dietary changes, exercise, and medications when needed. Regular cholesterol checkups help guide treatment and measure progress toward better cardiovascular health.
