Best for: Women in perimenopause who want a named, menopause-credentialled physician rather than a clinician network, and who will do the arithmetic on the protocol price themselves.
Visit Live VitalThe verdict for women
HealthRX edges out Live Vital on the Luna Fit Score, 85 to 76 (B vs C). Women who want a LegitScript-certified, physician-supervised program with both molecules, an oral-tablet route as well as injections, and transparent flat pricing with no insurance to navigate. The reasoning behind that number is in the HealthRX scorecard.
Live Vital is still a genuine option — a one-physician practice whose founder is menopause-certified and has written a 40-page perimenopause guide — genuine midlife expertise, wrapped around the most misleading price presentation on the board. Weigh the six women's-health factors below against your own priorities; what we found reviewing Live Vital goes through each of them, and if neither of these two is the one, the full field we rank against Live Vital widens the field.

Luna Fit
HealthRX
Ranked #5 · Grade B
What we like
- LegitScript-certified (a meaningful third-party trust signal) with physician-supervised care, not a prescription-only handoff
- Both molecules plus a rare oral GLP-1 tablet — real optionality for the needle-averse and for insulin-resistant PCOS
- Transparent, no-insurance flat pricing — injectable GLP-1 around $189/mo, oral tablet around $239/mo, GLP+GIP around $349/mo
The caveats
- Compounded medication is not FDA-approved the way brand Ozempic, Wegovy, or Zepbound are
- Some tiers are company-stated and the public site is thin, so a few figures can't be verified live
- Brand-name tiers are pass-through and expensive — brand Ozempic runs about $1,299/mo
Luna Fit
Live Vital
Ranked #48 · Grade C
What we like
- Founder Dr. Patrick Taylor is a menopause-certified practitioner and lists women's health as his first specialty — a rare credential in this segment
- Publishes a free 40-page perimenopause clinical guide with 32 peer-reviewed citations, which frames peptide therapy as an adjunct to hormone therapy rather than a substitute for it
- Peptide and hormone therapy sit on the same account as GLP-1 care
The caveats
- The advertised '$99/mo' is a $299 prepaid ten-week protocol divided by three months — the real cost is closer to $128 per 30 days
- No month-to-month option exists at all; the prepaid protocol is the only way to buy
- The pricing page does not list semaglutide, tirzepatide or retatrutide anywhere — the GLP-1s sit on separate pages it does not link to
