I think it depends on what your cholesterol numbers are.
I have seen familial patients with total cholesterol approaching 800.
Using a statin in high dose only reduced one woman to around 400.
If your are under 300, you may not need anything.
Keeping your triglycerides down with fish oil would be a big help.
This reduces viscosity of the blood.
Make sure your thyroid is in good shape...hypo raises cholesterol.
