Define the purpose of another result

Before ordering, decide what question a repeated measurement would answer. Curiosity, technical repeatability and a longer-term trend are different purposes. This directory does not prescribe a medical testing schedule.

Ask what change is detectable

A provider’s suggested interval is a commercial or technical recommendation, not automatically an independently validated clinical standard. Ask about within-person variation, assay error and model updates.

Keep the comparison consistent

Use the same provider and method where possible, document collection conditions, and confirm whether the algorithm version changed. Avoid interpreting a small shift as proof that an intervention worked. If testing concerns symptoms or abnormal clinical results, discuss the timing with a clinician.
