Thyroid Health Assessment for Functional Medicine Practitioners
A structured, evidence-informed screening tool that evaluates thyroid function through the lens of functional medicine. Helps practitioners identify hypothyroid patterns, autoimmune thyroid markers, and the connections between thyroid health, digestion, and nutrient status — in about 3 minutes, before the first appointment. Patients receive an instant, personalized health archetype report upon completion.
What This Assessment Covers
Thyroid Symptom Clustering
Evaluates the full thyroid symptom spectrum — fatigue, cold intolerance, weight changes, hair thinning, brain fog, constipation, and mood — mapping these to hypothyroid, subclinical, and autoimmune patterns.
Autoimmune Risk Screening
Captures family history of autoimmune disease, personal history of other autoimmune conditions, and symptom patterns that may indicate Hashimoto's thyroiditis — helping practitioners decide when to order TPO and thyroglobulin antibodies.
Nutrient & Digestive Correlates
Screens for digestive patterns, medication use, and dietary factors that affect thyroid function — including iodine intake, selenium status, and gut health indicators that influence T4-to-T3 conversion.
Pre-Appointment Screening
Send the assessment link in booking confirmations or reminder emails. Patients complete it before they arrive, so you walk into the appointment with a structured thyroid profile — not a vague "I'm tired and gaining weight."
Instant AI-Generated Report
Patients receive a personalized health archetype report immediately after completing the assessment. The report explains their results in plain language, builds trust, and primes them for your consultation.
Sample Questions
Each question is designed to be patient-friendly while gathering clinically useful data. Here are three examples from the thyroid assessment:
Which of these do you experience regularly?
- · Fatigue that doesn't improve with rest
- · Feeling cold when others are comfortable
- · Unexplained weight gain or difficulty losing weight
- · Hair thinning or excessive hair loss
- · Brain fog or difficulty concentrating
Have you ever been told your thyroid labs are "normal" but you still have symptoms?
Yes — multiple times · Yes — once · No — my labs have always matched my symptoms · I've never had thyroid labs drawn
Do you have a family history of thyroid or autoimmune disease?
Yes — parent or sibling with Hashimoto's or hypothyroidism · Yes — other autoimmune disease in the family · Not that I know of · I'm not sure
How It Works
Each thyroid assessment follows a structured three-step flow that converts diffuse symptoms — fatigue, weight changes, cold intolerance — into distinct clinical patterns. It is designed to collect enough data for thyroid archetype mapping without overwhelming the patient.
Patient Completes
The patient answers 8–12 questions about their thyroid symptoms, family history, lab testing history, and digestive health. Takes about 3 minutes on any device.
Archetype Is Generated
The assessment maps responses to three evidence-informed thyroid archetypes: Classic Hypothyroid Pattern, Autoimmune Thyroid (Hashimoto's) Pattern, or Subclinical / Conversion Dysfunction Pattern.
Practitioner Reviews
Results are available in your Brevlix dashboard before the appointment. Use them to prioritize labs (full thyroid panel, antibodies, nutrients) and structure the treatment plan.
Clinical Use Cases
From thyroid-focused functional medicine practices to general endocrinology-integrative clinics, practitioners deploy thyroid screening across a range of clinical scenarios.
New Patient Intake
Send the assessment link alongside intake paperwork. By the time the patient arrives, you have a structured thyroid symptom map, family history, and a preliminary archetype — the first appointment starts with lab priorities, not open-ended questioning.
Pre-Consultation Screening
For discovery calls or initial consultations, the assessment acts as a filter. Patients who complete it are pre-qualified and pre-educated about functional medicine approaches to thyroid health, making the consultation more productive.
Treatment Progress Tracking
Re-administer the assessment at 6- or 12-week intervals. Track shifts in symptom severity, energy levels, and archetype changes over time — quantifiable data for patient progress reports and treatment plan adjustments.
Group Program Enrollment
Use the assessment as an enrollment gateway for thyroid restoration group programs. Stratify participants by archetype — Autoimmune types need different protocols than Conversion Dysfunction types.
Patient Intake Workflow
Adding thyroid screening to your intake flow is straightforward. Most practices have the assessment running in a single afternoon — here is the typical setup sequence:
Generate Your Assessment Link
From your Brevlix dashboard, choose the thyroid assessment and customize your branding, booking link, and widget appearance. Copy the unique assessment link or embed code — no coding or developer help required.
Add to Booking Flow
Paste the link into your booking confirmation email, intake form, or appointment reminder. Most EHRs and scheduling platforms (Acuity, Calendly, Practice Better) support adding custom links to automated emails.
Embed on Your Website
Copy the Brevlix embed script and paste it onto any page — your homepage, a dedicated "Work With Me" page, or a services listing. The assessment renders as an interactive widget that matches your branding.
Review Before the Appointment
Completed assessments appear in your Brevlix dashboard. Review the thyroid profile, archetype result, and root cause directions before the patient arrives. Walk into every appointment with a data-informed clinical picture.
How practices use this today: Functional medicine practitioners send the thyroid assessment link in Calendly confirmation emails, embed it on Squarespace intake pages, and include it in Practice Better onboarding sequences. Patients complete it at home, on their phone, before the appointment — so the first visit is about solutions, not history-taking.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I edit the assessment questions?
The assessment questions are maintained by Brevlix and updated based on functional medicine research and practitioner feedback. You can choose from 12 pre-built health topics and customize your branding, booking link, and widget appearance to match your practice.
What does the patient see after completing the assessment?
Patients receive an instant, personalized health archetype report based on their responses. The report explains their results in accessible language, highlights relevant health patterns, and includes a clear next step — typically booking a consultation with your practice.
Can I embed this assessment on my website?
Yes. Brevlix provides an embed script — copy and paste onto any page. Works with Squarespace, WordPress, Wix, and custom sites. Practitioners commonly feature it on their thyroid restoration program page or include it in new patient intake sequences.
What thyroid conditions does this assessment screen for?
It identifies symptom patterns consistent with hypothyroidism, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, subclinical hypothyroidism, and T4-to-T3 conversion dysfunction. It does not diagnose — it helps practitioners prioritize which labs to order and which functional patterns to investigate.
I've been told my labs are 'normal' but I still have symptoms — can this help?
Yes. Many patients have symptoms despite TSH in the "normal" range. This assessment maps symptom clusters, family history, and functional patterns — helping practitioners identify when to run a full thyroid panel (including free T3, reverse T3, and antibodies) rather than relying on TSH alone.
