What's tested?

This test measures the different types of cholesterol in your blood and the total amount in your body.

Cholesterol is a fatty substance that helps your body make cell membranes, hormones and vitamin D.

Everyone needs a little cholesterol, but having too much can clog up your arteries and lead to health problems in the future, including heart disease and strokes.

The total amount of bad cholesterol in your body. Higher numbers mean a higher risk of heart disease.

FAQs

There are 2 types of cholesterol, and you might have heard them called good and bad cholesterol. Good cholesterol is also known as HDL. Bad cholesterol is known as LDL or non-HDL. Together, they make up your total cholesterol level.

Your total cholesterol levels will be specific to you. We'll let you know whether your results fall within a normal range or outside of it once we've processed your results, taking into account variables like your age and biological sex.

Talk to your doctor before taking this test. Being pregnant can have a noticeable impact on your results, so make sure to check in with your GP first.
