Head-to-head for women
Sesame Care vs Gala Health
Sesame Care and Gala Health 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.
Sesame Care
Ranked #5 for women · Grade B
Luna Fit
Best for: 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.

Higher scoreRanked #3 for women · Grade B+
Luna Fit
Best for: 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.
Visit Gala HealthThe verdict for women
Gala Health edges out Sesame Care on the Luna Fit Score, 87 to 85 (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.
Sesame Care is still a genuine option — an established national telehealth marketplace with the widest real brand-name GLP-1 access on the board — Wegovy (pen and pill), Zepbound, Ozempic and Mounjaro — plus provider-by-provider price transparency. Weigh the six women's-health factors below against your own priorities.

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
Luna Fit
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
