Hello there . I can see that you have very high cholesterol and triglyceride levels. It can be brought down by avoiding saturated fats and processed foods. But it is advisable that you take medicines for bringing it under control for a few months as the level is very high. Simvastatin for cholesterol and fenofibrate for triglyceride can bring it under control. You have very discuss it with your physician. Regarding the benign tumor in your uterus, in many cases the tumor itself shrinks in size after menopause. If it doesn't , hormonal therapy can do the needful. In severe cases the uterus may have to be removed. I hope that answers your question. If you have any further questions please feel free to write.
