Thanks for your query to Chat Doctor. Your HDL cholesterol(Good cholesterol) slightly on lower side. Can be boosted with lifestyle modifications like(exercises, Optimum sleep, avoid smoking etc.) If you are a high risk individual for Heart attacks(like family history of heart attacks, smoking,obesity, physical inactivity), ideal LDL cholesterol(Bad Cholesterol)level below 70 mg%.Otherwise, labs are normal. I suggest you to check at least every year. Hope I have answered your query.
