Head-to-head for moms
CoreAge Rx vs Freya Meds
CoreAge Rx and Freya Meds both offer GLP-1 telehealth to mothers, but they make different trade-offs on family-budget value, clinical oversight, price and access. Here they are side-by-side on the Editors' Rating — our six-factor rubric for mothers.
CoreAge Rx
Higher scoreRanked #1 · Grade A
Best for: Mothers who want to know the real monthly cost before the free trial talks them into it — one flat price on semaglutide or tirzepatide, everywhere in the country, with no lock-in.

Ranked #79 · Grade C
Best for: Mothers comfortable prepaying a quarter or a year to bring the price down substantially, who don't mind confirming the Lead Physician's actual credential directly before they start.
Visit Freya MedsThe verdict
CoreAge Rx edges out Freya Meds on the Editors' Rating, 94 to 55 (A vs C). Mothers who want to know the real monthly cost before the free trial talks them into it — one flat price on semaglutide or tirzepatide, everywhere in the country, with no lock-in.
Freya Meds is still a genuine option — three unambiguous commitment tiers (monthly $297/mo semaglutide and $390/mo tirzepatide, down to $150/$249 if you prepay a full year) with two named clinicians on the care team — though one is titled "Lead Physician" while described in the same breath as an NP, and the homepage anchors on the deepest-discount annual rate rather than the standing monthly price. Weigh the six factors below against your own priorities.

CoreAge Rx
Ranked #1 · Grade A
What we like
- Flat all-in price that doesn't step up after month one — the number you sign for is the number at the full dose
- Both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide on a single account, so a molecule switch never resets the budget
- Licensed in all 50 states — care survives a move, a deployment, or a summer at the grandparents'
The caveats
- Not the rock-bottom sticker price — a bare teaser tier elsewhere can look cheaper for exactly one month
- Compounded only; no FDA-approved brand Wegovy or Zepbound if that is what you and your clinician want
- A general metabolic program, not a dedicated women's or maternal-health clinic
Freya Meds
Ranked #79 · Grade C
What we like
- Three commitment tiers per molecule are unambiguously labeled on /pricing — no toggle-state guessing required to know what you're paying
- Unlimited doctor consultations, monthly group calls, and a one-on-one dietitian consultation are bundled at every tier, per the pricing page
- Names two clinicians directly by name rather than an anonymous "medical team"
The caveats
- The homepage headlines the $150/mo annual-prepay rate; the real no-commitment monthly price is nearly double, at $297/mo semaglutide and $390/mo tirzepatide
- "Lead Physician" Dr. Sienna Steckel is described in her own bio as an NP — a title inconsistency the site doesn't resolve
- "450,000+ patients across 50 U.S. states" is a self-reported claim, not independently verified
