Diagnosed with high cholesterol levels
I'm 26 and recently got tested and my Cholesterol levels fall under high risk category. Total: 251, Trig: 227, LDL: 165, VLDL: 45. I have a long history of PCOD too. Is this something serious and needs consultation and medication or would dietary and lifestyle changes suffice?
