Description
Amornrat Deeboonno and co-authors present a 2026 qualitative study of how pregnant women in Thailand use online health information. Digital literacy shapes whether mothers-to-be benefit from internet resources or fall for misinformation. Interviews explored searching, judging, and applying pregnancy information in daily life.
Twenty women, pregnant or recently delivered, from urban and suburban hospitals took part. Most searched through Google, YouTube, and Facebook. Participants could find information readily, yet they worried about source credibility, privacy, and hard medical wording. They asked for Thai-language resources that are simple to use and endorsed by trusted national health bodies. The authors urge providers and institutions to build and promote reliable digital materials rather than leaving women to navigate alone.
