cholesterol or early heart attacks may need testing earlier and more often.
How to Know Your Cholesterol Level
The only reliable way to know your cholesterol level is a blood test called a lipid profile. This usually measures total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides. Mayo Clinic states clearly that high cholesterol has no symptoms and that a blood test is the only way to find out if you have it.
If your numbers are high, your doctor may recommend lifestyle changes, medication, or both.
