Editorial
Last updated: April 24, 2026
PMM publishes evidence-based content on hormone optimization, peptide therapy, medical weight loss, and men's health. This policy describes how our articles are written, reviewed, and verified — and how we use AI tools as part of that process.
Every Primal Mountain Medical blog article is authored by Jason Skeesick, editor-in-chief of PMM. Jason is not a clinician — he is the person responsible for what gets written and published, how it is positioned, and whether a given piece is ready for readers.
Every article is then medically reviewed and approved by Dr. Jacob Egbert, D.O., our Medical Director, before publication. Dr. Egbert is the clinical authority on every claim we make. If a piece contains a dosing reference, a contraindication, a mechanism explanation, or a treatment-option summary, he has read it, vetted it, and signed off.
Some of our blog articles are drafted with AI assistance under editorial direction. We use AI tools the same way a newsroom uses a junior reporter: AI can surface research, draft a first pass against a brief, and format prose — but the output is not published. Every draft is substantively edited by Jason, rewritten where the voice or framing needs work, fact-checked against the peer-reviewed sources it cites, and routed through Dr. Egbert's medical review before it goes live.
We use AI assistance because it makes our editorial operation faster and lets Dr. Egbert spend his review time where it matters most — on the medical accuracy of what we publish, not on initial drafting logistics. We do not use AI to manufacture volume, to game search rankings, or to replace human judgment.
Every clinical claim in a PMM article is backed by a named, dated, peer-reviewed source — typically a study indexed on PubMed, a trial published in a major medical journal (NEJM, JAMA, The Lancet, JCEM), or a guideline from a professional society (Endocrine Society, AACE, ISSM). Citations appear as clickable markdown links so readers can verify any claim directly.
We preference evidence from the last ten years where it exists, and we say so explicitly when the evidence base for a claim is older, contested, or emerging.
We do not diagnose readers through articles. Our blog is educational — it can describe lab ranges, mechanisms, and general treatment pathways, but it is not a substitute for a provider consultation, a lab panel, or a clinical judgment about your specific situation.
We do not promise outcomes. Individual responses to hormone optimization, peptide therapy, or any other intervention vary. When we cite response rates or expected timelines, we cite them as published research, not as guarantees.
We do not pretend an article was written without AI assistance when it was. If a reader asks, the answer is that we use AI assistance under the editorial and medical-review discipline described above.
If you find a factual error in a PMM article, please email [email protected]. We will review, correct if confirmed, and note the correction with a dated "Last reviewed" update on the article page.
