What to Expect from a Cholesterol Test in Edgeware

Comprehensive Cholesterol Testing

A cholesterol test in Edgeware provides a comprehensive assessment of 'good' and 'bad' cholesterol plus triglycerides to evaluate your cardiovascular risk. This private lipid profile goes beyond a routine screen, helping our GPs tailor guidance to your individual health needs. A single blood test can identify whether your HDL (good cholesterol) is high enough, LDL (bad cholesterol) is within a healthy range, and whether triglyceride levels are elevated. Use this test as a proactive step to prevent heart disease and stroke, especially if you have a family history or other risk factors. For context and convenience, this service is integrated with our broader blood tests offering, and you can learn more about the full Blood tests in Edgeware here.
