Public statistics
Public findings are traced to their original publications. Each chart shows the data period, which may be earlier than this page's update date. Counts, rates, survey estimates and populations are not interchangeable. Source links beneath the charts lead to the original research.
Pregnancy Safe app research
Product checks are app events, not people, purchases or confirmed exposures. App users are not a representative sample of pregnant people in the United States. The current activity window covers January 1, 2026 through September 14, 2026. Category rankings include only checks that exactly match a catalog identity and an explicit category mapping. Unclassified activity remains in the denominator of overall category shares.
Symptom charts count distinct accounts reporting a symptom within each assigned week, divided by accounts with a check in that week. Multiple selections can overlap. Weeks are reconstructed from current profile due dates, not historical pregnancy records. Cells and complements below 30 accounts are suppressed, not treated as zero. These rules do not establish privacy approval or clinical prevalence.
Ingredient charts count distinct catalog product records with linked ingredients, not deduplicated formulations. The Pregnancy Safe scoring matcher resolves aliases and context specific caution or avoid flags. These are app classifications, not measurements of pregnancy outcomes or guarantees of safety.
