ANA Test Positive
My wife recently underwent ANA test and it came positive.
Primary & End point titre: 1:100
Intensity : 1+ (Minimum fluorescence)
Pattern: Nuclear Speckled
Symptoms: Only hair loss
Can anyone please interpret this report? Is this associated with autoimmune disorder.
Other test like CBC, ESR, thyroid profile, LFT, KFT are normal.

ANA 1 + speckled is normally positive in 20-30 percent of normal individuals without any evidence of autoimmune diseases.
The main cause for excessive hair loss is iron and folic acid deficiency in India.
Consult a Rheumatologist if things persists or increases. Thanks
