How we choose topics
Every article answers one specific question about hair loss tracking, progress photos, routines, symptoms, or preparing a useful record.
We do not publish pages that repeat the same answer under a different title. Treatment content is separated only when the tracking method, safety context, or search question is genuinely different.
Drafting and review
The Plume team checks product behavior, removes unsupported claims, verifies internal links, and makes sure each article answers its stated question.
Health claims are checked against direct sources such as the American Academy of Dermatology, official medicine labels, government health guidance, and published research. Content is not presented as medically reviewed unless a named and qualified reviewer has actually reviewed it.
Dates and updates
The publication date is the day an article first becomes public. We do not invent older dates to make the library look established. The updated date changes only after a meaningful revision to the content.
Sources and corrections
When an article relies on health information, it links to the most direct and authoritative source available. Product descriptions are checked against the current Plume app.
If we find an error that changes the meaning of an article, we correct the page, update its modified date, and make the new wording clear. Readers should never have to guess whether a confident sentence is evidence or marketing.
Boundaries
Plume content is general education. It is not a diagnosis, medical advice, or a recommendation to start, stop, or change treatment. Questions about hair loss, symptoms, side effects, or medicine belong with a qualified clinician.
