Visit TellHerDocThe verdict
CoreAge Rx edges out TellHerDoc 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.
TellHerDoc is still a genuine option — a women-facing telehealth brand selling compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide as injections or pills, in all 50 states, with the only public figure a floor: starting at $269. The small print under it says that figure is paid up front and that introductory pricing applies to the oral semaglutide plan, so no page tells you what an ordinary month of either injection costs until you are through the quiz. The Get $140 Off Today banner is a discount amount, not a price. In its favor, it names its four compounding pharmacies and the physicians behind its medical group, and says there is no monthly membership fee. Weigh the six factors below against your own priorities.

CoreAge Rx
Editors' Rating 94/100 · 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
TellHerDoc
Editors' Rating 55/100 · Grade C
What we like
- Carries both molecules as weekly injections or pills, with microdoses available
- Names its four compounding pharmacies (Belmar, Strive, Epiq Scripts and Casa Pharma Rx) with phone numbers
- Names the physicians who lead its medical group, with their NPI numbers
The caveats
- $269 is a floor — starting at — and no page prices either molecule specifically
- The small print says the advertised price is paid up front, and introductory pricing applies only to the oral semaglutide plan
- The Get $140 Off banner is a discount amount, not a price
