Visit Sesame CareThe verdict for women

Oak is still a genuine option — the cheapest published entry point for both molecules on this board, sold as one-off packages rather than a subscription — and offered in Spanish as well as English. Weigh the six women's-health factors below against your own priorities.

Luna Fit
Oak
Ranked #14 · Grade B
What we like
- Lowest published prices on this board for both molecules — semaglutide from $119/mo, tirzepatide from $185/mo
- One price across all dosages, so titration does not raise the cost
- No membership or subscription fee, and free shipping
The caveats
- Compounded medication is not FDA-approved the way brand Ozempic, Wegovy, or Zepbound are
- No brand-name path and no oral or sublingual route
- Same-day approval with no video call required — fast, but it means little clinical contact before a prescription
Luna Fit
Sesame Care
Ranked #5 · Grade B
What we like
- Real FDA-approved brand-name access — Wegovy pen and pill, Zepbound, Ozempic, Mounjaro and Rybelsus
- Established platform (operating since 2018) with LegitScript, BBB accreditation and large third-party review volume
- You choose the provider and see the price up front — genuine marketplace transparency
The caveats
- A generalist marketplace, not a dedicated weight-loss program — lighter ongoing hand-holding than a specialist desk
- Two-part cost (a platform subscription plus the medication) makes the true monthly total harder to compare
- Brand-name cash prices can run high without insurance
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.
