1.What is hypercholesterolemia?

Hypercholesterolemia, or high cholesterol, is a condition characterized by elevated levels of cholesterol in the blood, particularly LDL cholesterol (often referred to as "bad" cholesterol), which increases the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Risk factors for hypercholesterolemia include genetics, diet high in saturated fats and cholesterol, sedentary lifestyle, obesity, smoking, diabetes, hypertension, and age.

Diagnosis is based on blood tests to measure cholesterol levels, including total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides. High cholesterol levels are typically defined as LDL cholesterol levels above 130 mg/dL.

The primary goals of hypercholesterolemia treatment are to lower LDL cholesterol levels to within target ranges (usually <100 mg/dL or <70 mg/dL for high-risk individuals) and reduce the risk of cardiovascular events, such as heart attack and stroke.

Take control of your cholesterol levels and protect your heart health with expert guidance and personalized treatment from Dr. Ramakrishna, the leading expert in hypercholesterolemia management in Hyderabad.
