lipid and cholesterol panel

A lipid and cholesterol panel is a blood test that measures the levels of fats in your blood. These include total cholesterol, HDL (good) cholesterol, LDL (bad) cholesterol, and triglycerides. This test helps assess your risk of heart disease, stroke, and other cardiovascular conditions. High levels of LDL or triglycerides and low levels of HDL can increase the chances of blocked arteries, which may lead to serious health problems if not detected early.

Doctors often recommend a lipid panel as part of a routine health check-up, especially for adults over 20, or those with a family history of heart issues, diabetes, obesity, or high blood pressure. Fasting for 9–12 hours before the test may be required for accurate results. Based on the results, healthcare providers may suggest lifestyle changes, medications, or further monitoring to manage cholesterol levels.
