HDL cholesterol

Core panel — run every month

What it indicates

The amount of cholesterol carried on high-density lipoproteins.

Why a series helps

It is comparatively stable, which makes a sustained change across months more noticeable than any one unusual reading.

What this page does not tell you

What a particular HDL cholesterol result means depends on you: your history, your medication, why the test was taken. Ziro does not interpret results for individuals and does not diagnose. If something in your results warrants a conversation, that conversation is with a doctor, and your results are downloadable so you can bring them.
