Disagreement is okay. Bullying, insults, harassment, discrimination, and hateful language are not.</p>
<p data-start="787" data-end="1079"><strong data-start="787" data-end="824">Share experiences, not diagnoses.</strong><br data-start="824" data-end="827" />You may discuss your own experiences with fertility, pregnancy, postpartum recovery, breastfeeding, nutrition, medications, symptoms, and health concerns. Do not diagnose another member or tell someone to start, stop, or change medication or treatment.</p>
<p data-start="1081" data-end="1343"><strong data-start="1081" data-end="1101">Protect privacy.</strong><br data-start="1101" data-end="1104" />Do not post home addresses, private phone numbers, financial information, passwords, medical records, or other sensitive information.

<p data-start="1345" data-end="1543"><strong data-start="1345" data-end="1384">No spam or repeated self-promotion.</strong><br data-start="1384" data-end="1387" />Do not repeatedly advertise products, services, referral links, businesses, fundraisers, or outside groups. Relevant and honest recommendations are welcome.</p>
