Abnormally low cholesterol
I just had my cholesterol levels checked for the first time and they are abnormally low. My total is 100, triglycerides are 79, HDL (good) are 52, and LDL (bad) are 32!!! My doctor said this is the lowest she has ever seen. She asked about my diet and I assured her it's normal and she was reassured. Should I be worried about these low results? I went to see her because my period has been very erratic for a while now(~1 year); very light and late. My hair also had a mass falling-out about a year ago and is still much thinner than it was before. However, I feel fine overall. Should I be worried?
I have read that low cholosterol can cause anxiety amd depression. You should talk more to your doctor about it, or perhaps have a second opinion. I have also read that there is a chance that you might night be producing enough Bile to properly absorb the fat that you need. I am no Doc, but I would deffinatley follow up on this. BUT, better low than high right??
Good luck.
