The verdict for women

Higher Luna Fit Score: MadeMed

MadeMed edges out ShedRx on the Luna Fit Score, 84 to 83 (B vs B). Women who expect to titrate and want to know today what month six costs, and who want an oral route available without switching provider. The reasoning behind that number is in what we found reviewing MadeMed.

ShedRx is still a genuine option — a weight-focused program that also offers an oral/sublingual route — a genuine relief for the needle-averse and for anyone easing in gradually. Weigh the six women's-health factors below against your own priorities; the ShedRx scorecard goes through each of them, and if neither of these two is the one, what women pick instead of ShedRx widens the field.

MadeMed

Ranked #6 · 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

The caveats

  • Compounded medication is not FDA-approved the way brand Ozempic, Wegovy, or Zepbound are

  • Competitive tirzepatide pricing
  • Weight-focused program with titration support

The caveats
