Editorial Policy

Last updated August 5, 2026.

Sources

We prioritize primary, official sources, the FDA, FTC, CDC, and NIH, and each provider’s own published pages for their prices and terms. We link to sources so readers can verify claims independently. We do not publish statistics without a source.

Verification

Facts, prices, and terms are checked before publication and re-checked on update. When a specific detail cannot be confirmed, we label it Not yet verified instead of guessing. We distinguish carefully between FDA-approved and compounded medications and never present them as equivalent.

Use of AI

We use AI tools to assist, for research support, drafting scaffolding, translation, and preparation. AI is a tool, not an author of record. No medical or health-related article is published automatically. Every such article receives human review before it goes live, and a person is accountable for what we publish.

Human oversight

A member of the editorial team is responsible for each published piece. For sensitive or clinical topics, we may engage qualified professionals to review content; when we do, their identity and role are stated on the page. We never invent experts, testimonials, or before-and-after imagery.

Medical content

Our content is general education, not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. We avoid guaranteed-outcome language and sensational claims. We encourage readers to consult a licensed healthcare professional for decisions about their care.

Conflicts of interest

Editorial conclusions are independent of commercial relationships. Affiliate links are disclosed clearly and never determine a rating or recommendation. See our Affiliate Disclosure.

Corrections

We correct errors openly and note what changed. If you spot a mistake, please tell us, corrections are welcome and taken seriously.

Updates

Because this field changes quickly, we revisit content on a schedule and after notable developments. Each guide shows a visible “last updated” date.
