[gotcha] Using the A, B, C, D, X pregnancy risk categories to evaluate medication safety

Use the FDA's Pregnancy and Lactation Labeling Rule \(PLLR\) narrative summaries instead of the alphabetical categories, which were eliminated in 2015.

Journey Context:
The A-X system was overly simplistic and often misinterpreted \(e.g., Category C was not necessarily safer than D\). Agents trained on older medical literature or forums frequently hallucinate these letter grades. The PLLR requires reading the actual risk summary, making it harder for agents, but necessary for clinical accuracy.
