German trying to use PT to lower Lp(a) without success

Personally I have no knowledge of that blood factor, but if it is related to exertion/heart failure, it MAY be a signal that you require extra Coenzyme Q10.

Thank you, Owen. I had a hunch.

Has this alleged risk value ever been measured by anyone in the forum?

By the way, are you're taking aged garlic extract? Because I came across this study which found even with such a low dose as 250 mg/d there was a increase in Lp(a).

Aged garlic extract supplemented with B vitamins, folic acid and l-arginine retards the progression of subclinical atherosclerosis: A randomized clinical trial.

Results

At 1 year, CAC progression was significantly lower and TR significantly higher in the AGE + S compared to the placebo group after adjustment of cardiovascular risk factors (p < 0.05). Total cholesterol, LDL-C, homocysteine, IgG and IgM autoantibodies to MDA-LDL and apoB-immune complexes were decreased, whereas HDL, OxPL/apoB, and Lp (a) were significantly increased in AGE + S to placebo.

Could be the case with me, if I look at the correlation of Lp(a) the last years and aged garlic ext intake:

I'm taking about 3000mcg daily, but i'd love to see the study???
You mean 3mg?
I put 1gram into a drip.
