you have to work on diet to keep on your triglyceridemia and cholesterol levels.
To my knowledge there are not really a very good indicators to know cholesterol at home, as I am not expert I may be unaware of some reliable brand.
I think for triglycerides there are a few and you can buy after discussing with your Dr.

Have you thoguht of Omega 3 fish oil pills. They are good for controlling triglyceridemia. In some cases triglyceridemia is a cause of elevated cholesterol and also ldl.

lean meat is OK and skin off lean chicken meat as well. Look and try to have cholesterol free meat.

include salmon in your diet.

about bleeding you will have to continue taking pill for a time till you feel you don't have similar episode.

with PCOS the periods are going to be irregular and you been through that, unfortunately there is little your gynec could do. Good news is today you are a proud mother of one baby with this trouble. I understand troubles you been through and emotions you have had to go through.

Is it possible for you to get on some gym schedule and also give up on fatty diet and lets see how you do. It's advised that high cholesterol people should do at least 30 minutes regular exercise each day. Good for blood circulation and bringd down the ldl.
