Community Guidelines

Share accurate checks

• Report only what you personally confirmed with the pharmacy or provider.
• Include when you checked. Do not guess inventory, repeat hearsay as confirmed, or fabricate stock claims.
• Report out-of-stock checks too. Negative information can save someone else a wasted call or trip. If the pharmacy explained that an item was backordered, you can share that in the optional note.
• Use No estradiol patches at all only when the pharmacy confirmed a broad outage across strengths, frequencies, and manufacturers.

Protect people's privacy

• Do not include personal medical information, diagnoses, prescription information, insurance information, or contact details.
• Do not identify pharmacy employees or share private conversations beyond a brief availability summary.
• Never include account credentials, order details, or links in community notes.

Keep the community useful

• Be respectful. Harassment, threats, discriminatory content, and targeted abuse are not allowed.
• No spam, commercial promotion, referral marketing, malicious links, or automated submissions.
• Use Report Incorrect Information when a visible report needs review. If you checked the pharmacy yourself, submit a newer availability report as well.

Moderation

PatchFinder may review, hide, reject, or restore reports and notes to protect accuracy and safety. Repeated intentional false reporting, abuse, or attempts to evade protections may be blocked. Flags are review signals and do not automatically erase community history.
