How the HDL cholesterol Test Is Done :

When your doctor recommends a HDL cholesterol test, you'll likely undergo a simple blood draw specifically targeting the measurement of HDL cholesterol. A pathologist, a specialist in studying diseases, will collect a small blood sample from your veins using a needle. Your HDL cholesterol test results will typically be available within a few hours after this procedure.
