What does a medical reviewer do?

A medical reviewer ensures that health-related content meets clinical accuracy standards and uses appropriate framing. For Balding AI, this means verifying that claims about treatments, medications, and conditions are consistent with current medical literature and do not overstate evidence or provide individualized medical advice.

Review scope

• Treatment content: finasteride, minoxidil, dutasteride, PRP, microneedling, and combination therapy posts are reviewed for accuracy of mechanism descriptions, side-effect framing, and clinical evidence citations.
• Diagnostic content: posts covering telogen effluvium, male pattern baldness patterns, scalp conditions, and when-to-see-a-doctor guidance are reviewed for appropriate differential framing.
• Tracking protocols: zone-specific tracking protocols are reviewed to ensure they do not imply diagnostic capability and correctly position tracking as a tool for clinician conversations, not self-diagnosis.

Review standards

All reviewed content must meet three criteria: (1) claims are supported by peer-reviewed literature or institutional sources (AAD, Mayo Clinic, Cleveland Clinic, PubMed), (2) medication content includes appropriate disclaimers and defers to clinician guidance, and (3) no content implies that tracking can replace professional diagnosis.

Content reviewed

Dr. Nguyen reviews blog posts, guides, and tracking protocols published on balding.app. The “Reviewed by” byline appears on content pages alongside the publication and last-updated dates.
