Thank you — that is the clearest version of this I have read, and I have read a lot of them. I will report back once I have actually tried it.
Adding the clinical framing, because it changes how the question reads. Order of operations matters more than any single choice here: establish a baseline, change one thing, wait long enough for it to express itself, then measure again under the same conditions.

Can confirm. Same sequence, different timescale. Posting only so the count is not one.

Coming at Dr.EndoEP’s question from a different direction. Start from the measurement rather than the conclusion. Almost every disagreement here turns out to be two people measuring different things and comparing the numbers anyway.
Correct me if the detail matters more than I have assumed.
Adding the numbers, since they settle part of this. Practical: whatever you change, write down the date and the reason. In three months the reason is what you will have forgotten, and the reason is what makes the record worth having.
