Why it’s important to test your cholesterol levels

Cholesterol is a waxy substance found in blood. Everyone has some. It is needed for good health. But some people may have too much. 

Compared to people with normal levels of cholesterol, people with high cholesterol have a higher risk of heart attack, stroke and other health problems. The higher your cholesterol, the higher your risk of these problems.

How we can help

InstantScripts is Australia’s leading online health clinic. We offer a Cholesterol Blood Test which includes checking your total cholesterol, LDL (low density lipoprotein), HDH (high density lipoprotein), Non-HDL cholesterol and Triglycerides to assess your risk of cardiovascular disease.

All you need to do is fill out a simple Cholesterol Blood Test request form. If it is approved by one of our Australian-registered doctors, the pathology form will be emailed to you. You then take this to your nearest pathology collection centre.

Once we receive the results, usually within a few days, they will be available for you to review through the InstantScripts app. If there is anything abnormal, we will contact you for a follow-up consultation to walk you through the results and help identify recommended treatments. If you receive an abnormal result, you should also see your doctor.

What our Cholesterol Blood Test screens for

Our Cholesterol Blood Test blood test screens for the following:

Total cholesterol: is a measurement that includes all of the cholesterol found in your blood. 

LDL (low density lipoprotein): Some people call this the “bad” cholesterol. That’s because having high LDL levels raises your risk of heart attack, stroke, and other health problems. 

HDH (high density lipoprotein): Some people call this the “good” cholesterol. That’s because people with high HDL levels tend to have a lower risk of heart attack, stroke, and other health problems. 

Non-HDL cholesterol: This is your total cholesterol minus your HDL cholesterol. 

Triglycerides: Triglycerides are a type of fat. But they often get measured when cholesterol is measured. Having high triglycerides also seems to increase the risk of heart attack and stroke.
