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.
