The verdict for women

Higher Luna Fit Score: CoreAge Rx

CoreAge Rx edges out Effecty on the Luna Fit Score, 93 to 87 (A vs B+). Women who want transparent flat pricing and dependable nationwide access to both semaglutide and tirzepatide, without a teaser-rate bait-and-switch.

CoreAge Rx

Ranked #1 · Grade A

What we like

  • Both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide on one account — tirzepatide is often preferred where insulin resistance drives PCOS weight
  • Flat, all-in monthly price with no intro-rate step-ups after month one
  • Available in all 50 states — no coverage gaps if you move or travel

The caveats

  • Not the rock-bottom price — budget shoppers can find cheaper teaser tiers elsewhere
  • No FDA-approved brand-name option (compounded only)
  • General metabolic program rather than a dedicated hormone/PCOS clinic

Effecty

Ranked #6 · Grade B+

What we like

  • FDA-approved brand access plus compounded, both molecules
  • LegitScript-accredited — a meaningful oversight signal when hormones are involved
  • Nationwide across all 50 states

The caveats

  • No oral/sublingual form
  • Not a hormone-specialty program; PCOS framing is general
