Editorial Policy

Last updated: June 1, 2026

We are committed to accurate, useful, and clearly-sourced information about fertility and IVF. This page explains how we work.

How articles are created

Articles are researched and written using authoritative sources, such as the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA), the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM), NICE, the NHS, and peer-reviewed research, which we cite at the foot of every article.

Medical review

Articles covering clinical topics are reviewed by a consultant in reproductive medicine before publication. Reviewed articles display the reviewer’s name, credentials, and the date of review. Our current reviewer is Dr Priya Nair, MBBS, MRCOG.

Keeping content current

We review published articles periodically and update them as clinical guidance and success-rate data change. Each article shows its publication date and, where applicable, when it was last updated or reviewed.

Corrections

If you spot an error, please tell us via our Contact page and we will review it promptly.
