Strong indicators of the pattern with some minor variations. Pattern is reliable.

✅ Action: Follow recommendations, monitor progress

85-89% (Good)

Below 85%

Unclear or complex pattern, possibly multiple imbalances.

🚀 Taking Action: Your Next Steps

Read Carefully

Spend 10-15 minutes reviewing your entire report. Understand why the AI reached this diagnosis based on your tongue characteristics.

Connect to Symptoms

Match the health insights to symptoms you're experiencing. This validates the diagnosis and helps you prioritize interventions.

Start Small

Don't try to implement everything at once. Pick 2-3 changes you can sustain long-term for lasting results.

Track Progress

Retake tongue photos monthly. TCM changes happen gradually - expect 4-8 weeks to see improvement in tongue appearance and symptoms.

Consult Professionals

For complex cases, persistent symptoms, or herbal guidance, work with a licensed TCM practitioner or healthcare provider.

Be Patient

TCM focuses on root causes, which take time to resolve. Consistent application of recommendations yields best results.

❓ Common Questions About Results

Can I have multiple patterns?

Yes! The AI identifies your primary pattern, but many people have secondary imbalances. Complex cases benefit from professional TCM diagnosis.

How long until I see changes?

Most people notice symptom improvements within 2-4 weeks and tongue changes within 4-8 weeks of consistent lifestyle changes.

Should I retake the scan?

Yes! Track progress by scanning monthly. Take photos under consistent conditions (morning, before eating) for accurate comparison.

What if results don't match how I feel?

Consider: photo quality, timing (after meals affects tongue), recent illness, or medications. Retake the scan under ideal conditions or consult a TCM practitioner.

Can I share results with my doctor?

Absolutely! Many healthcare providers appreciate complementary perspectives. Explain that TCM identifies patterns, not diseases, and focuses on prevention.

Are herbal recommendations safe?

Traditional formulas are generally safe but consult a TCM practitioner for proper dosing and to check interactions with any medications you take.
