The verdict for women

Higher Luna Fit Score: Found

Found edges out Direct Meds on the Luna Fit Score, 87 to 82 (B+ vs B−). Women who want behavior-change coaching bundled with medication, at low identical pricing on both molecules.

Direct Meds is still a genuine option — one of the few programs we track that offers an oral or sublingual route alongside injections — semaglutide drops from about $179 (or $297 injectable), tirzepatide from about $224 — all-inclusive with no separate membership. The trade-off is a newer, less-verified operator whose prices we couldn't confirm live. Weigh the six women's-health factors below against your own priorities.

Direct Meds

Ranked #30 · Grade B−

What we like

  • Rare oral and sublingual route in addition to injectable — a real option for the needle-averse
  • Both molecules offered — semaglutide and tirzepatide for insulin-resistant PCOS
  • All-inclusive pricing with no separate membership fee, and a promotional entry near $147

The caveats

  • Compounded only — no FDA-approved brand semaglutide or tirzepatide
  • Prices are company-stated, not ones we could verify live, and the brand runs multiple domains
  • A newer operator with an ambiguous footprint, so the oversight signal is thinner

Found

Ranked #4 · Grade B+

What we like

  • Low, identical pricing on both molecules, nationwide
  • Strong behavior-change coaching — useful for the lifestyle levers in PCOS
  • Whole-person program rather than prescription-only

The caveats

  • Coaching-subscription model isn't for everyone
  • Compounded only
