Head-to-head for women
HealthSource vs ShedRx
HealthSource and ShedRx both offer GLP-1 telehealth to women, but they make different trade-offs on PCOS and hormonal suitability, clinical oversight, price and access. Here they are side-by-side on the Luna Fit Score — our women's-health rubric.
HealthSource
Ranked #67 for women · Grade C
Luna Fit
Best for: Women who want an oral tirzepatide option and a documented nationwide footprint, and who will read the four-week billing cycle rather than assuming it is monthly.

Luna Fit
Best for: Women who want an oral or sublingual option rather than weekly injections, at competitive tirzepatide pricing.
Visit ShedRxThe verdict for women
ShedRx edges out HealthSource on the Luna Fit Score, 83 to 74 (B vs C). Women who want an oral or sublingual option rather than weekly injections, at competitive tirzepatide pricing. The reasoning behind that number is in the ShedRx scorecard.
HealthSource is still a genuine option — one of the few programs that documents its all-50-state footprint rather than asserting it, with an oral tirzepatide route and a starter-dose plan priced the same as the full dose. Weigh the six women's-health factors below against your own priorities; what we found reviewing HealthSource goes through each of them, and if neither of these two is the one, what women pick instead of HealthSource widens the field.
Side-by-side on the six factors
Both providers scored on the same women's-health rubric — the higher side on each factor is marked. See the methodology.

Luna Fit
HealthSource
Ranked #67 · Grade C
What we like
- The only provider in this batch whose all-50-state claim is documented on its own service-areas page rather than asserted in marketing copy
- An oral tirzepatide program alongside the injections
- Starter-dose and full-dose plans cost the same, so titrating up does not raise the bill
The caveats
- Billed every four weeks, not monthly — thirteen charges a year, so the effective annual cost is about 8% above the sticker
- Never actually claims flat pricing across all doses; the variants it sells happen to cost the same
- The form of the oral tirzepatide — sublingual, troche or swallowed tablet — is not disclosed anywhere
Luna Fit
ShedRx

- Competitive tirzepatide pricing
- Weight-focused program with titration support
The caveats
