Head-to-head for women

Peter MD vs Sesame Care

Peter MD and Sesame Care 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.

Peter MD

Ranked #46 for women · Grade C

Best for: Someone who wants tirzepatide or compounded semaglutide alongside TRT, NAD+, sermorelin or hair-loss care on one login, and doesn't need a women's-hormone-specialized program to get it.

The verdict for women

Higher Luna Fit Score: Sesame Care

Sesame Care edges out Peter MD on the Luna Fit Score, 85 to 72 (B vs C). Shoppers who want genuine FDA-approved brand-name GLP-1s and the ability to pick their own provider and see the price up front, rather than one fixed compounded program. The reasoning behind that number is in the Sesame Care scorecard.

Peter MD is still a genuine option — a physician-prescribed telehealth brand (Miami, founded 2021) that puts GLP-1 care on the same account as TRT, ED, NAD+, sermorelin and hair loss — genuinely broad, but built for a general and largely male-first audience rather than PCOS or hormonal care specific to women. Weigh the six women's-health factors below against your own priorities; our Peter MD write-up for women goes through each of them, and if neither of these two is the one, what women pick instead of Peter MD widens the field.

Peter MD

Ranked #46 · Grade C

What we like

  • One of the widest catalogs on this board: TRT, ED, weight loss, GLP-1, men's hair loss and NAD+ all live under a single account
  • Physician-prescribed rather than a form-only handoff
  • Both GLP-1 molecules disclosed with real per-product pricing, not a single vague headline figure

The caveats

  • Price varies meaningfully by tier and product — semaglutide alone has two published rates (new vs. returning patient) whose totals don't cleanly reduce to one monthly number
  • Tirzepatide is billed quarterly with a first-month teaser rate ($149) against a $249/mo standing charge — budget for the standing rate, not the number in the hero
  • State restrictions vary by treatment and are broader than the customer-facing pages disclose — the affiliate program's own listing excludes several more states (AL, AR, CA, ID, IA, KY, LA, MA, MI, NC, SC, TX depending on the product) than the marketing pages mention

Sesame Care

Ranked #4 · 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
