Understanding Your Results
High Anti-HLA Antibody Levels
Suggests immune-mediated cause for miscarriages; may require immunotherapy or further evaluation.
Elevated CD19 or TNF-alpha
Indicates B-cell activation or inflammation, contributing to reproductive failure.
Normal Levels
Reduces likelihood of immune-related causes; other factors should be investigated.
Abnormal NK Cell Markers
May point to enhanced innate immunity affecting implantation.
Consult your gynecologist or fertility specialist if you have recurrent miscarriages, failed IVF attempts, or if test results show elevated anti-HLA antibodies for personalized treatment options.
