How dangerous is homocysteine over 10?


Restoring health, one step at a time.
Homocysteine over 10μmol/L usually has multiple risks, generally need to be combined with the specific situation analysis.
Homocysteine is usually formed by methionine conversion of sulfur-containing amino acids, the normal value of the test results is 5-15μmol/L. If the test results exceed 10μmol/L but do not exceed 15μmol/L, it will not cause blood circulation and vascular endothelial cell damage, nor will it form thrombosis in the blood vessels to block the blood vessels. At this time, there is generally no risk. If homocysteine not only exceeds 10μmol/L but also exceeds 15μmol/L, it is easy to affect the normal function of coagulation system. With the passage of time, emboli will form, emboli can block local blood vessels with blood flow. At this time, it is usually dangerous and easy to induce cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, such as stroke, cerebral infarction, acute myocardial infarction,
etc.
