Strange, historic, and fascinating medicine. Many claims here are old, unverifiable, or quackery—shared for history, not advice. I do my best to be accurate, but I’m human and mistakes can slip through. Be weird. Be respectful. Preserve the past.

  1. Be respectful and curious.
    Priority: 0

    This is a historical and educational space. Debate is welcome, but harassment, trolling, or hostile behavior will not be tolerated.

  2. No NSFW or sexually explicit content.
    Priority: 1

    This is a public, educational subreddit. Do not post sexually graphic or fetish content, even if it is from a historical medical source. Gyn, urology, and autopsy images may be removed at moderator discretion.

  3. No promotion or spam.
    Priority: 2

    Don’t use this space to promote products, services, or your own content unless it directly contributes to the discussion. Relevant links are welcome; spam is not.

  4. Source your posts when possible.
    Priority: 3

    If you're sharing an image, artifact, or quote, include context when you can—book titles, publication dates, authors, etc. We love knowledge.

  5. No reposts or AI-generated fakes.
    Priority: 4

    Don't repost content already on the sub. AI-generated “vintage” items or deepfakes must be clearly labeled as such. This is a real Cabinet.

  6. Use flair when posting.
    Priority: 5

    Choose the appropriate flair: Artifact, Book, Prescription, Tool, Ad/Document, Help ID, etc. It helps keep the Cabinet organized.

  7. Ask before posting human remains.
    Priority: 6

    Historical human remains may be posted with discretion, but please contact the mods first. Respect, not spectacle.

  8. Keep it educational and weird (but tasteful).
    Priority: 7

    This community is for the curious and historically inclined. Humor is welcome—gross-out shock value without context is not.
