Trust & transparency

Medical review policy

How ParentVibes keeps health content trustworthy: who reviews it, the sources we rely on (WHO, IAP, NHS, ACOG), what medical review does and doesn't mean, and how often we re-check.

ParentVibes publishes information on sensitive, high-stakes topics — fertility, pregnancy, IVF, newborn care, vaccinations and child development. We take that responsibility seriously. This policy explains how our health content is reviewed and kept current.

Our medical reviewer

Dr. Prachi

Physician · Medical Reviewer — Women's Health

Our medical reviewer checks health content for accuracy and safety. We are actively growing our advisory panel of OB-GYNs and paediatricians — see our medical experts. We only ever name real, qualified reviewers who have genuinely reviewed our work — we never fabricate credentials.

How we review

  1. 1

    We ground content in recognised guidance

    Before writing, we gather guidance from established health authorities and peer-reviewed literature — never a single blog or forum.

  2. 2

    A qualified doctor reviews health content

    Health articles are reviewed by a medical reviewer for accuracy and safety, and carry a named 'Medically reviewed by' byline so you know who checked them.

  3. 3

    AI never invents medical claims

    Any AI-assisted drafting is checked by a person against reputable sources. We do not use AI to create studies, statistics, or clinical claims.

  4. 4

    We show dates and re-review on a schedule

    Every reviewed article shows when it was last reviewed and updated, and evergreen health content is re-checked periodically or when guidance changes.

The sources we rely on

Our health content is guided by recognised authorities, and we link to primary sources wherever possible:

  • World Health Organization (WHO) — global child & maternal health guidance
  • Indian Academy of Pediatrics (IAP) — India's paediatric & immunisation standards
  • UK National Health Service (NHS) — plain-language clinical guidance
  • American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) — obstetric & gynaecology guidance
  • Peer-reviewed medical literature — primary research and systematic reviews

What medical review does — and doesn't — mean

A “Medically reviewed by” byline means a qualified reviewer has checked the article for accuracy and safety against reputable sources. It does not mean the article is a substitute for a consultation, a diagnosis, or personalised advice for your situation.

Guidance can differ by country and changes over time. Always follow the advice of your own doctor, midwife, or paediatrician. For more, see our medical disclaimer and editorial policy.
