What a high Lipoprotein (A) means, and common causes

A genetically determined particle that raises heart and stroke risk independently of LDL. A high level is inherited and stays roughly constant for life.

Common causes: Genetics, which accounts for almost all of it. Kidney disease and hypothyroidism can raise it modestly.

What a low Lipoprotein (A) means, and common causes

A low level is favourable.

Common causes: Not applicable.

Frequently asked questions

Under 30 mg/dL is generally considered low risk, with thresholds varying by lab.

Zindagi mein aam taur par ek baar kaafi hai, kyunki yeh genetic hai aur badalta nahin.
