Well: Lupus can cause hair loss but you will need more tests to confirm if you indeed have lupus since an elevated ANA titer may be found in apparently healthy people. If it is present , controlling the disease activity would likely help. On the other hand , overactive thyroid and even iron deficiency may cause hair loss consult a rheumatologist.

Complicated: Your symptoms and lab findings may be consistent with lupus or sjögren's syndrome need more information and more lab studies to make determination hair loss may be a part of either disease. It is important that you see a rheumatologist asap.
