A-TPO

Individuals with symptoms of thyroid dysfunction, a family history of thyroid disease, or other autoimmune conditions should consider A-TPO testing.

High A-TPO levels often indicate an autoimmune thyroid disorder, such as Hashimoto’s thyroiditis or Graves’ disease, where the immune system attacks the thyroid.

Rarely, individuals may have elevated A-TPO levels without clear signs of thyroid disease, but it usually warrants further monitoring and evaluation.

Yes, A-TPO levels can fluctuate, especially in response to thyroid disease progression or treatment.
