PCP wants me to go on statins?
I’m 27 f. I’m healthy, active, eat whole foods (only in the last year have I been monitoring my food intake, realized I was under eating on accident- experiencing lots of stress - feeling better tho)
She says if my cholesterol doesn’t change that I should start on medication… forever. I obviously do not want that. I’m wondering if any functional medicine folks could help point me to a more holistic approach to my cholesterol.
Also, I added other tests. Specifically looking for insight on leptin, my female hormone markers, and thyroid. I know I have a smaller reproductive window.
Thanks in advance!
