Did your cholesterol suddenly change during menopause—even though your diet didn’t? 👀
You’re not imagining it. As estrogen declines, changes in cholesterol metabolism, body composition, sleep, stress, and insulin sensitivity can all influence your cardiovascular health.
That’s why total cholesterol is only one piece of the puzzle. 🧩 Understanding markers like LDL, HDL, triglycerides, ApoB, Lipoprotein(a), blood sugar, and blood pressure can give you a much clearer picture of your individual risk.
Menopause doesn’t automatically mean heart disease—but it is an important time to understand what your body is telling you. 🌿
At Omni You Functional Health, we believe in looking beyond the numbers to understand the whole picture.
