The verdict for women

Higher Luna Fit Score: HealthRX

HealthRX edges out Science & Co on the Luna Fit Score, 85 to 74 (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.

Science & Co is still a genuine option — declares in its own footer that it is not a compounding facility, and explains its own asterisk in its own FAQ — two disclosures almost nothing else here makes. Weigh the six women's-health factors below against your own priorities; our full Science & Co review goes through each of them, and if neither of these two is the one, the alternatives to Science & Co we rank for women widens the field.

HealthRX

Ranked #6 · 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

Science & Co

Ranked #64 · Grade C

What we like

  • States twice in its footer that "Science and Co, Inc. is not a 503A or 503B compounding facility"
  • Its own FAQ names the commitment behind the headline: "Plans start at $79 a month on the 12 month plan"
  • The printed saving corroborates the reference price — 79 divided by 149 is 53%, exactly the "Save 47%" shown

The caveats

  • The number it leads with is a twelve-month commitment; the per-month rates are $149 and $199
  • Only two figures are published per drug, so a three- or six-month plan cannot be priced without starting an intake
  • It says it is not a compounding facility but never names the pharmacy that is
