Our Editorial Process
Topic Selection & Research
Our editorial team identifies topics based on reader questions, search trends, and gaps in accessible women's health information. Research draws on public sources such as ACOG, the CDC, NIH, MedlinePlus and PubMed.
Informational Writing
Articles are written with care, drawing on publicly available health information from established health organisations. We avoid sensationalism and present information in plain, accessible language.
Editorial Review
Every article is reviewed by our editorial team for accuracy, clarity, and completeness before publication. Claims are compared against the sources each article cites.
Regular Updates
Women's health research evolves rapidly. We monitor guideline updates from ACOG, NIH, CDC, and WHO, and revise articles when new evidence changes best-practice recommendations. Each article displays its most recent review date.

What GynecologyGuru Is Not
GynecologyGuru is an educational resource, not a medical provider. Our content is intended for general informational purposes only and does not constitute medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Reading our articles does not create a doctor-patient relationship.
Consult a qualified, licensed healthcare provider — such as your OB-GYN or primary care physician — before making any decisions about your health.

About Us →Questions About Our Content?
If you spot an error, have a question about a source, or want to suggest a topic, we want to hear from you.
Contact Our Editorial Team →What we will not publish
We do not publish invented statistics, unattributed quotes, testimonials presented as evidence, or claims that a supplement or product treats a medical condition. When the evidence is weak or mixed, we say so. When something requires a clinician, we say that too.
How we handle updates
Each article shows a review date. When ACOG, the CDC, the US Preventive Services Task Force or another body we rely on changes a recommendation, we revise the affected articles and update that date. Reader corrections sent through the contact page are checked against the original sources before any change is made.
Language and inclusivity
We write in plain English, define clinical terms the first time we use them, and aim to be useful to anyone with a uterus, vagina or ovaries, whatever their age or stage of life.
