Hi
Thanks for your query.
Based on your query, my opinion is
1. Your lipid profile is deranged.
2. It needs to be lowered with medications for now as it carries a risk of hypertension and cardiovascular diseases.
3. You need to make lifestyle modifications apart from a exercise like healthy dietary habits, quit smoking/ alcohol intake.
4. Normal levels for HDL is more than 2. And for LDL is less than 2.5
Hope this helps
Regards
