Head-to-head for women
Direct Meds vs NEUVÉ Health

Visit NEUVÉ HealthThe verdict for women
Direct Meds edges out NEUVÉ Health on the Luna Fit Score, 80 to 74 (B− vs C). Women who want an oral or sublingual alternative to weekly shots, on an all-inclusive program with no membership fee, and who are comfortable vetting a newer compounder themselves. The reasoning behind that number is in what we found reviewing Direct Meds.
NEUVÉ Health is still a genuine option — twelve GLP-1 formulations priced openly before any intake, and the deepest women's testing menu in this ranking — two fertility panels among them. What none of it settles is whether the price includes the drug, a question the seller answers three different ways. Weigh the six women's-health factors below against your own priorities; what we found reviewing NEUVÉ Health goes through each of them, and if neither of these two is the one, the NEUVÉ Health alternatives, scored on the same six factors widens the field.

| Semaglutide | $249/mo sublingual · $297/mo injectable | $217/mo standard injectable with B12 ($179 microdose, $212 sublingual) — its own financial policy says medication is billed separately, so this may not be an all-in price |
| Tirzepatide | $299/mo sublingual · $399/mo injectable | $324/mo standard injectable with B12 ($240 microdose, $282 sublingual) — same open question about whether the medication is included |

Luna Fit
Direct Meds
Ranked #26 · 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
Luna Fit
NEUVÉ Health
Ranked #60 · Grade C
What we like
- Publishes twelve GLP-1 formulations with prices before any account or intake — injection and sublingual, microdose and standard, with B12 or with glycine
- Prices women's hormone panels, a women's fertility panel at two depths and a GLP-1 bone-health panel, none of which any other provider in this ranking publishes at all
- Requires a GLP-1 lab panel within ninety days and annually after, at a stated $45, drawn through Quest or LabCorp — both named
The caveats
- Three of its own pages disagree about what the monthly price buys — one heading reads all-in monthly pricing directly above a line saying medication, labs and supplies are billed separately
- Its financial policy goes further still and bills the clinician consultation separately too, through a clinical partner the site never names
- Every legal page describes itself as plain-English summary copy still under review by counsel, on a site that is live and taking payment
