Please upload reports
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I need to know the value of LDL and triglyceride levels. Also if you have any symptoms or health issues like diabetes and hypertension, please let me know. This will help decide whether medicine is needed or not.
Regarding exercises, you can continue any sports activity that you like to do. Regular walk and yoga will also be helpful.
In diet, you need to reduce fatty foods like butter, cheese, burger, pizza, nonveg, etc. Milk and buttermilk are ok. Clean drinking water is needed with lower TDS.
Hope this helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Brief Answer:
Currently no need for medicine
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
As per current recommendation, you don't need medicine for lowering cholesterol. I am assuming that you don't have any other health issues. You should try to have an regular exercise routine and diet restriction as mentioned above. Recheck the lipid profile in one year.
Here you may understand that cholesterol is just a risk factor for cardiovascular health and it's not a disease by itself.
