Guest guest Posted August 15, 2001 Report Share Posted August 15, 2001 Hi guys, I know there are a lot of really smart people on this list, several in the medical profession in one way or another, and therefore I have a question. I have a friend who is overweight, about 50, is hypertensive, perimenopausal or menopausal and has otherwise been in pretty good shape. Her cholesterol has always been normal. She is a fellow Weight Watchers member and is following the program, losing weight slowly, and has greatly changed her eating habits with regards to meat, fats, etc. She just had a physical and everything was fine except her cholesterol level went up 60 points. Does any one know of any correlation between menopause and increased cholesterol levels. Anyinformation would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. in GA Still holding…….
