Editorial standards

Velaine publishes educational content about intimate wellness — a topic where the internet is full of exaggeration in both directions. This page explains how our content is made, so you can decide how much to trust it.

How guides are researched

• Materials and product claims are based on manufacturer specifications, materials-science references, and physical inspection of samples where we stock the product. Where a claim cannot be verified, we say so on the page.
• Pelvic health content follows published physiotherapy guidance and systematic reviews. It is general education, not individual advice.
• Comparisons state their criteria explicitly. Where a guide discusses products we sell, that commercial relationship is obvious from context — we do not pretend to be a neutral review site.

Claims we refuse to make

• No medical or therapeutic claims for any product.
• No “doctor recommended” framing without a named, verifiable source.
• No fabricated reviews, ratings, or urgency timers — anywhere.

When we tell you to see a professional

Our content draws a hard line: symptoms — pain, prolapse, urinary issues, anything unexplained — are questions for a GP or pelvic health physiotherapist, and our guides say so wherever the topic comes up. A shop is not a clinician, and we do not blur that line.

AI assistance and human review

We use AI tools in drafting and research. Every published page is reviewed and edited by a person before it goes live, and every factual claim stays subject to the standards above regardless of how the first draft was produced.

Updates and corrections

Guides show their last-updated date. If you find an error — factual, medical, or otherwise — email hello@velaine.com.auand we will review it within a week. Corrections that change a guide’s conclusions are noted on the page.
