Head-to-head for women
CoreAge Rx vs Pallas Health
CoreAge Rx and Pallas Health both offer GLP-1 telehealth to women, but they make different trade-offs on PCOS and hormonal suitability, clinical oversight, price and access. Here they are side-by-side on the Luna Fit Score — our women's-health rubric.

Higher scoreRanked #1 for women · Grade A
Luna Fit
Best for: Women who want transparent flat pricing and dependable nationwide access to both semaglutide and tirzepatide, without a teaser-rate bait-and-switch.

Ranked #16 for women · Grade B−
Luna Fit
Best for: Readers who want a general compounded GLP-1 program with unusually specific disclosure about who prescribes and who dispenses, and who can absorb a $597 charge four weeks after the $139 one — not readers looking for PCOS or perimenopause care, which Pallas does not offer.
Visit Pallas HealthThe verdict for women
CoreAge Rx edges out Pallas Health on the Luna Fit Score, 93 to 82 (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. The reasoning behind that number is in what we found reviewing CoreAge Rx.
Pallas Health is still a genuine option — names its six dispensing pharmacies and two NPI-verified physicians — disclosure few rows here offer — and then sells the whole thing on a single 12-week prepay whose advertised “$199/mo average” is that prepay divided by three, with no monthly rung to pick instead. Weigh the six women's-health factors below against your own priorities; the Pallas Health scorecard goes through each of them, and if neither of these two is the one, the full field we rank against Pallas Health widens the field.

Luna Fit
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
Luna Fit
Pallas Health
Ranked #16 · Grade B−
What we like
- Names all six dispensing pharmacies in public — Belmar, Strive, Epiq Scripts, Casa Pharma Rx, The Pharmacy Hub and Foothills — with the 503A and 503B distinction explained, where almost everything else in this category names none
- Names two prescribing physicians with their NPI numbers and links out to the NPPES registry so you can check them yourself: Dr. Ana Lisa Carr, MD (family medicine, NPI-verified, licensed in 15 states) and Dr. Kelly Tenbrink, MD (emergency medicine, NPI-verified, Tennessee and Florida). Pallas additionally claims obesity and addiction medicine board certifications for Dr. Carr, which NPPES does not carry either way
- The advertised price is the checkout price — the homepage FAQ, the landing pages, the treatment pages and the live funnel all state the same four figures, and no different number appears at payment
The caveats
- There is no month-to-month rung. The funnel renders no cadence selector at all: semaglutide is $139 for the first four weeks and then $597 billed every 12 weeks, so the second charge is $597 in one payment four weeks after the first — tirzepatide, $179 then $897 — and the advertised “$199/mo average” is that 12-week prepay divided by three rather than a price anyone is billed
- Twelve weeks is not three months. On Pallas's own published renewal terms the charge recurs every 84 days — 4.35 times a year, not four — so semaglutide's first year is $139 + 4×$597 = $2,527, or $210.58/mo, and the steady state is $2,596 a year, about $216/mo, against $199 advertised. Tirzepatide runs $3,767 in year one ($313.92/mo) and about $3,900 a year after (~$325/mo) against $299. The advertised average understates the ongoing rate by roughly 8.7%
- No women's-health program of any kind. Pallas's own women's-health category exists only as “coming soon”; there is no PCOS track, no perimenopause track and no cycle-aware protocol, and neither named physician is an OB-GYN or a women's-health specialist. What is on offer here is a general compounded GLP-1 program, and it should be read as one
