Female homocysteine 12μmol/L is generally not high, considered normal.
Homocysteine is an intermediate product of methionine and cysteine metabolism, the normal level is 5-15μmol/L. Female homocysteine 12μmol/L is in the normal range, so the index is not high, there is no need to worry too much, and no special treatment is needed.
If female homocysteine>15μmol/L, it may be related to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Therefore, it is recommended that women regularly rest, ensure adequate sleep, maintain balanced nutrition, moderate physical exercise, and control weight within a reasonable range, which is conducive to maintaining cardiovascular and cerebrovascular health.
