Your positive ANA is actually considered negative at 1:40.
This is very basic medical knowledge!
Most Rheumatologists (the specialists who deal with Autoimmune conditions) will only consider ANA titres of
1:160 or higher.

It is likely a hormonal imbalance to my opinion.
I'm afraid the specialist you're seeing is missing something
very important.

You must rule out estrogen dominance-not necessarily excess estrogen- but an imbalance in the progesterone to estrogen ratio.
If this is the case, the "fix" is usually simple.
You need to avoid synthetic estrogen including xeno-estrogens from any source and supplement with bio-identical progesterone cream.

If your thyroid function is low, the conventional thyroid tests may not indicate this as they cannot detect type 2 hypothyroidism (thyroid-resistance).
It is critical to get Free T3, Free T4 and Reverse T3 tests.
In the event you do get pregnant, you risk passing this to your baby, if your thyroid function is not properly regulated.
Of course,  besides being a factor in infertility, your general health would be also affected, since the body requires adequate thyroid function for just about everything!

The other thing to have checked is nutritional and mineral deficiencies.

Please let me know, if you have any questions, but certainly do post again, once you have some answers (if you decide to follow through with my suggestions), so I can offer you some specific recommendations.

Best wishes,
Niko

I have no idea what your doctor's intentions are, but based on the limited medical background you posted, I strongly believe that you need to explore the things I mentioned in my original post  including also ask for a complete hormonal panel,and then have a serious risk/benefit analysis for any immunosuppressive steroid treatment.
Prednisolone is a synthetic steroid!
Should you have any adrenal hormonal issues, I'm afraid, you might suffer the consequences of suppressing your adrenals even further (adrenal suppression is a direct effect for all patients on steroids, regardless of levels of adrenal function, within just weeks of starting (withdrawal symptoms can start just after a week on prednisolone as your adrenals cease to produce adequate amounts of adrenal hormones )

Please be very careful and become more proactive.
Many doctors are too eager to prescribe drugs indiscriminately without much consideration, basing their decisions on symptom management and artificial intervention to correct imbalances
in the patients' bodies.
The last thing you would want is to develop significant adrenal issues which you may also pass to your baby, if you get pregnant

I cannot see how aspirin and prednisolone can help with infertility
issues.
There's one instance --> in IVF procedures, where prednisolone may be prescribed so the body does not reject the implanted fertilized egg.
My opinion is to to find a reputable natural medicine practitioner, like
a Functional Medicine or Naturopathic  Doctor to help you.
You want the most natural approach
for yourself at this time and your chances of getting pregnant and having a healthy baby, increase
dramatically, when you do the right things.
I'm probably missing a few key pieces of information, so if you think there are some important details
left out, please include them in your next post.

Best wishes,
Niko
