Cholesterol Blood Test
Measures total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, triglycerides and the ratios between them. Straightforward to repeat when tracking change.
What this tells you
The full lipid picture: total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, triglycerides and the ratios between them. The ratios usually say more than the headline number does.
Results are returned and explained privately by the clinic. Nothing is published on this website.
How to prepare
Fasting required
Fasting required. Please have nothing to eat for 8 to 12 hours before your appointment. Water is fine, and keep taking any prescribed medicines unless your doctor has told you otherwise. A morning appointment is usually easiest. Drinking water beforehand makes the sample quicker to take.
