Head-to-head for women

MadeMed

Ranked #8 for women · Grade B

Gala Health

The verdict for women

Higher Luna Fit Score: Gala Health

Gala Health edges out MadeMed on the Luna Fit Score, 87 to 84 (B+ vs B). Women who want a low-cost compounded tirzepatide on-ramp nationwide, value having a brand-Ozempic escape hatch, and appreciate a provider that also treats the hormone side through its HRT and menopause line.

MadeMed is still a genuine option — a LegitScript-verified compounded program that charges one flat price at every dose — so titrating up to a working dose never quietly raises the bill. Weigh the six women's-health factors below against your own priorities.

MadeMed

Ranked #8 · Grade B

What we like

  • One price at every dose, published dose by dose — semaglutide $239/mo from 0.25mg to 2.4mg, tirzepatide $399/mo from 2.5mg to 15mg
  • LegitScript verified, with board-certified physician review and US compounding pharmacies
  • Oral semaglutide and oral tirzepatide are both offered alongside the injections

The caveats

  • Compounded medication is not FDA-approved the way brand Ozempic, Wegovy, or Zepbound are
  • 40 states rather than nationwide — check yours before you start
  • Tirzepatide is among the pricier entries on this board at $399/mo quarterly

Gala Health

Ranked #3 · Grade B+

What we like

  • Very low compounded entry — tirzepatide from $179, microdose from $149, three-month plans from $199
  • Available across all 50 states — a rare full-nationwide footprint
  • Offers a brand path (Ozempic) alongside compounded, so you aren't locked to one route

The caveats

  • Compounded medication is not FDA-approved the way brand Ozempic or Zepbound are
  • Brand-name access is very expensive — Ozempic runs about $1,299/mo
  • No oral or sublingual route yet — injections only for the needle-averse

Assume any provider we list may compensate us — we may earn a commission, at no cost to you. It never changes a Luna Fit Score; affiliate partners carry a capped 6-point edge in list order, never in the score itself. Pricing, states and verification reflect each provider's public disclosures at last review; the Luna Fit Score is our editorial judgment per the methodology. Prices change — confirm on each provider's site. Not medical advice; see our disclosure.
