A Lipid Profile Screening test is a simple blood test that checks the amount of fats (called lipids) in your blood. These fats include cholesterol and triglycerides, which play a big role in your heart health.

This test helps you understand your risk of conditions like Heart Disease and Stroke. If your lipid levels are not balanced, it can increase the chances of blockages in blood vessels over time.

What does the test measure?

• LDL (Bad Cholesterol)
• High levels can lead to fat buildup in arteries, increasing heart risk.
• HDL (Good Cholesterol)
• Helps remove bad cholesterol from the body and protects your heart.
• Total Cholesterol
• The overall amount of cholesterol in your blood.
• Triglycerides
• A type of fat that stores extra energy. High levels can also increase heart risk.

Why it matters

This test gives you a clear picture of your heart health and helps doctors suggest the right diet, lifestyle changes, or treatment if needed. It’s often recommended as part of regular health checkups, especially if you have risk factors like poor diet, lack of exercise, or family history.
