I read your question and I understand your concern.

Regarding the lipid profile those values are inside the desirable levels and there is no need to worry on that regard, it's all fine.
As for microcytosis, it's just a descriptive term meaning small red blood cells. It might not mean much, its significance depends on other blood count values, on whether there is anemia or not. The most common cause is iron deficiency.

I hope to have been of help.

Hi overall view indicates that your blood lipid levels are within normal range. Your HDL levels are good for a female. I would advice you to keep doing regular mild work outs and continue healthy habits in your diet, About the microcytosis please let us know your hemoglobin level and red blood cell count to assess the situation further. Do let me know if you have any more questions for me
