Editorial & content review policy

Updated June 11, 2026

Content standard: every health page on this site must meet eight requirements — a direct answer up front, structured presentation, authoritative references (WHO/ACOG/CDC and similar), author and reviewer bylines (editorial review; named-clinician review shown when one is secured), an updated date, a medical disclaimer, links to related tools/content, and no thin content.

Content review: health pages are compiled and fact-checked by our editorial team against WHO/ACOG/CDC sources, positioned as health education (not medical advice), with an updated date shown. We do not impersonate an individual licensed physician; if a real, credentialed clinician is secured, the page is upgraded to named medical review (name, credentials and review date).

On the “safe period”: we state clearly that calendar-based safe days fail at 12–24% per year of typical use and are not reliable contraception. We provide the tool to help you understand your cycle — never as a birth-control method.

Corrections: spotted an error? Tell us via the site email; we verify and log fixes in the page’s update history.
