Luna Fit
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
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
