Aligned Modern Health

If you’ve had preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, PCOS, or early menopause, you may deserve more comprehensive cardiovascular screening than a standard cholesterol panel provides.

These reproductive health events can act like metabolic stress tests. They may reveal important information about how your body handles insulin, inflammation, and vascular stress, information that can persist and inform long-term cardiovascular health.

But a standard cholesterol panel will not capture all of it.
A basic lipid panel measures total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, and triglycerides. It does not measure Lp(a), a genetic risk factor elevated in about 1 in 5 people. It does not measure inflammation markers like hs-CRP, insulin resistance through fasting insulin, or particle number through ApoB.

The good news: when you know your more complete cardiovascular profile, you can take more targeted action.

Comprehensive testing gives you a fuller picture so you can manage your risk proactively. More complete data means more personalized prevention.
