Corrections Policy

Our commitment to accuracy

We take the accuracy of health and wellness information seriously. Despite our editorial and medical review processes, errors can occur — a study may be mischaracterised, guidance may have changed since publication, or a factual claim may simply be wrong. When that happens, we want to know and we will act quickly.

How to report an error

If you believe any content on this site contains a factual error, please contact us at corrections@mymaternalmind.com. Please include:

• The URL of the article containing the error
• The specific text or claim you believe is incorrect
• If possible, a link to a source that supports the correction

You do not need to create an account or provide personal information beyond an email address for us to respond.

What happens after you report

We acknowledge all corrections requests within 3 business days. Reports involving potential patient safety concerns are escalated immediately and reviewed within 24 hours.

Our editorial team or the article’s medical reviewer assesses the report. If a correction is warranted, we update the article, note the correction at the bottom of the piece, and update the “Updated” date. For significant medical corrections, we also flag the article for a full medical review.

We will reply to the reporting party to let them know the outcome, whether or not a correction was made.

How corrections are noted on articles

Substantive corrections — those that change the meaning, clinical guidance, or factual basis of the content — are noted at the bottom of the relevant article with a brief description of what changed and why. Minor corrections (typos, formatting, broken links) are fixed silently.

No retaliation or gatekeeping

We welcome corrections from anyone — readers, clinicians, researchers, or other professionals. Reports are assessed on their merits alone. We will never penalise a user for reporting an error in good faith.
