๐Ÿ“ˆ Built-in Chart Templates

Your Google Sheets template comes with pre-configured chart templates for:

  • Thyroid Function Timeline: TSH, Free T4, Free T3 over time
  • Metabolic Markers: Glucose, HbA1c, Insulin trends
  • Hormone Timeline: Cortisol, Testosterone, Estradiol progression
  • T3/rT3 Ratio Trend: Track thyroid conversion efficiency

Charts automatically update as you add new data!

๐Ÿ’ก Pro Tips for Maximum Insight

  • Consistent formatting: Use YYYY-MM-DD date format for easy sorting
  • Empty cells OK: Use “โ€”” or leave blank if test wasn’t done
  • Track ratios: T3/rT3 ratio auto-calculates to spot conversion issues
  • Color coding: Use conditional formatting to highlight out-of-range values
  • AI-ready format: This layout is perfect for uploading to Claude or ChatGPT
  • Regular updates: Add new labs immediately – trends emerge over 6+ months

๐Ÿค– AI Analysis Made Easy

Once you have 6+ data points, you can:

  1. Download your sheet as CSV: File โ†’ Download โ†’ CSV
  2. Upload to AI: Claude, ChatGPT, or other AI tools
  3. Ask powerful questions:
    • “Create a line chart showing my thyroid trends over time”
    • “What patterns do you see in my cortisol levels?”
    • “Analyze the correlation between my insulin and glucose values”
    • “Generate a summary of my lab trends for my doctor”

๐ŸŽฏ Why This Format Works

This timeline format helped me discover critical patterns that individual lab reviews missed:

  • Progressive cortisol decline from 0.19 to 0.09 ยตg/dL over time
  • Thyroid conversion dysfunction – T3/rT3 ratio swings from 7 to 43
  • Insulin resistance development despite GLP-1 therapy
  • Treatment response tracking – see exactly when interventions help

Your timeline will reveal patterns that could change your treatment!
