Why You Shouldn't Ignore High Cholesterol With PCOS - Even in your 20s

🔍 What if that “borderline” cholesterol isn’t so borderline?

I’ve been thinking about all the times my patients were told:“You’re young.”“You’re active.”“Just lose weight.”…all while their cholesterol was quietly waving a red flag 🚩

Here’s what’s often missed:

➡️ PCOS messes with cholesterol in very specific ways

➡️ That slightly-high LDL in your 20s? It matters more than you think

➡️ FH (a genetic cause of high cholesterol) that might hide behind a PCOS diagnosis

➡️ And yes, even with “normal weight” and a solid diet, this can still show up. Which is why everybody in every size deserves a cholesterol conversation irrespective of size.
