How we review content

No health content goes live on Femio until a qualified clinician has reviewed and approved it — our system refuses to publish anything unreviewed.

Draft, review, approve, publish

An editor writes to our page standard and adds sources; a medical reviewer checks accuracy, source fidelity, and safety framing; only a reviewer can approve, and only approved content can be published.

Qualified reviewers

Reviewers are licensed clinicians appropriate to the topic, such as OB-GYN or family medicine. Their name, credentials, and the last-reviewed date appear on every page they approve.

Every language reviewed

A translated page cannot go live without that language’s own medical-reviewer sign-off. Good translation is never a substitute for medical review in that language.

Enforced, not aspirational

These gates are built into our system: reviewer-only approval, approval before publishing, per-language sign-off, and 12-month re-review dates.

Need help now?

If you may be in danger

If you may act on thoughts of harming yourself or someone else, or you are in immediate danger, contact the emergency services available where you are now or go to the nearest emergency department.

If you can, stay with someone you trust while you get help.

Find a crisis service for your country

You can also use Find A Helpline to find a crisis service for your country.

If you are worried about someone else

If you think the person is in immediate danger, do not leave them alone if it is safe for you to stay. Contact the emergency services available where they are, a crisis service, a health worker, or a trusted family member.
