Abstract:Social media platforms like TikTok have become a key source of health information, with studies reporting inaccuracies in posts. As Large Language Model (LLM) providers increasingly integrate LLMs into digital platforms to fact-check content (e.g., Grok and Perplexity on X and WhatsApp, respectively) and are being used by people to fact-check information, deploying these systems in critical areas such as reproductive health without rigorous evaluation can cause serious harm. We introduce RELIANCE, an expert-annotated dataset of health information on TikTok surrounding pregnancy and postpartum queries, serving as both an analysis of the reproductive health information landscape and an evaluation of LLMs' capabilities in fact-checking this content. Our dataset comprises 409 annotated sentences from 336 videos across 56 clinician-reviewed queries, annotated by three expert clinicians in Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Internal Medicine. Our findings reveal that nearly 60\% of the health information in the videos we sampled is accurate. Furthermore, LLM evaluations reveal a gap between evaluating specific claims and evaluating the entire content (15\%). We believe that our methodology, dataset, and tool will support the machine learning community in improving LLMs for important domains with real-world data, extending to other platforms and languages, and helping the health community further understand the information landscape on social media. Our dataset and code are made available at this https URL.
