Visit Hims & HersThe verdict
CoreAge Rx edges out Hims & Hers on the Editors' Rating, 94 to 76 (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.
Hims & Hers is still a genuine option — ⛔ FDA warning letters dated 9 September 2025, over the compounded-semaglutide business it has since left behind. Through the Hers front door, a mass-market brand now selling FDA-approved brand-name GLP-1s — Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic — instead of the compounded semaglutide it used to. The posted price is only half the bill: a required $149/mo membership sits on top of whatever the medication costs, so the real monthly number is roughly double what the landing page shows. 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
Hims & Hers
Ranked #18 · Grade C
What we like
- Now selling FDA-approved brand-name medication (Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic) rather than compounded semaglutide
- An explicit women's entrance (Hers) and a polished nationwide app most mothers already trust
- Oral and injectable routes, so a needle-averse first-timer has a way in
The caveats
- The posted 'from $149/mo' price is medication only — a required $149/mo membership (billed separately, $39 the first month) roughly doubles the real ongoing cost
- Carries FDA warning letters dated 9 September 2025 over the prior compounded-semaglutide business, before this pivot to brand-name product
- A volume-first model — ongoing clinical touch is lighter than a dedicated care team
