How Babette reports, sources, and discloses.

Babette is an independent media and education company, not a medical provider. We do not diagnose, prescribe, or direct treatment. Our journalism and education are meant to help you understand your options and prepare for conversations with your care team, not to replace them. Some materials may be created with the support of artificial intelligence and should be reviewed with your medical providers before informing any care decision. All decisions about your care belong to you and your doctor.

Medical information on Babette is evidence-based and grounded in reputable sources such as the National Cancer Institute, the American Cancer Society, professional guidelines, and peer-reviewed literature.

We clearly distinguish established evidence, expert opinion, and lived experience.

When an article has been medically reviewed, we name the reviewer, their credentials, and the review date. We never label an article medically reviewed unless it was.

We do not invent experts, quotations, statistics, or personal experiences.
