High Cholesterol Treatment

Comprehensive High Cholesterol Treatment in Officer

High cholesterol is a common, yet often silent, health condition that can contribute to serious cardiovascular problems if left unmanaged. At Trident Medical Centre in Officer, we offer personalised care to help you manage your cholesterol levels and reduce your risk of heart disease, stroke, and other related conditions.

Our experienced doctors work closely with you to understand your overall health and develop a personalised treatment plan tailored to your lifestyle and goals.

What Causes High Cholesterol?

Cholesterol is a fatty substance found in your blood. While your body needs some cholesterol to function, having too much—especially of the “bad” cholesterol (LDL)—can lead to plaque build-up in your arteries, restricting blood flow and increasing your risk of cardiovascular issues.

Several factors can contribute to high cholesterol, including:

  • A diet high in saturated fats, trans fats, and processed foods.
  • Lack of regular physical activity.
  • Smoking or excessive alcohol intake.
  • Being overweight or obese.
  • Family history or genetic predisposition.
  • Medical conditions such as diabetes, kidney disease, or an underactive thyroid.
Since high cholesterol typically has no symptoms, many people don’t realise they have it until it is detected through a blood test. That’s why regular check-ups are so important.

  • Lipid profile testing to assess your cholesterol levels and overall cardiovascular risk.

  • Support for weight management smoking cessation, and increasing physical activity.
  • Medication management, including prescribing and monitoring cholesterol-lowering medicines such as statins, where appropriate.
