Test Details

What is this test?

The LIPID PROFILE test is a blood test that assesses the levels of lipids (fats) and cholesterol in the bloodstream. It provides valuable information about an individual's cardiovascular health by measuring cholesterol types, including high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and triglycerides.

How the Test is Performed?

Blood Sample: A healthcare provider will collect a blood sample, typically from a vein in your arm, using a needle and a syringe or a specialized blood collection tube.

Laboratory Analysis: The blood sample is sent to a laboratory for analysis. There, the levels of various lipids and cholesterol components are measured.

How to Prepare for the Test?

Fasting is often required for accurate results. Typically, you will need to fast for 9-12 hours before the test. This means no food or drink except water during the fasting period

How the Test will Feel?

You may feel a brief pinch or discomfort when the needle is inserted to draw the blood sample. Afterward, there might be some mild bruising or soreness at the site, but this is typically temporary
