Here's how it works:
You can easily manage your autoship through our patient portal at any time. Adjust delivery dates, pause subscriptions, or make changes as your needs evolve. Our system is designed to work with your lifestyle, not against it.

We work exclusively with FDA-registered 503B compounding pharmacies that meet the highest standards for quality, safety, and sterility in producing compounded prescription medications.
About Hers GLP-1 Weight Loss
Hers is a major telemedicine company for women. They provide a magnitude of prescription medications for our most pressing issues. From hair loss to birth control, and of course weight management.
Speaking in terms of their compounded GLP-1 medication, it's hard to beat their $199/mo pricing for compounded semaglutide. However, what some women don't know is this pricing is for a year upfront. The one time payment would be around $2,388. This would cover you for the year.
Hers doesn't offer compounded tirzepatide, which many patients prefer - just because it has the potential to work better than semaglutide for some individuals.
Hers does offer brand-name medications, so if that's something you're considering, you may want to look into that, and see if your insurance covers it.
Hers intake process is quite extensive, and they always seem to offer their compounded semaglutide at the end of it, regardless of what answers you give them.
Overall, people really enjoy the Hers brand - they are trustworthy and have been serving women in the telemedicine space for many years.
Comparing Pricing
Hers offers their compounded semaglutide for $199/mo with a 12-month plan, paid up-front.
