Head-to-head for women

Sesame Care vs WellMedr

Sesame Care and WellMedr 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

Higher score

Ranked #4 for women · Grade B

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.

WellMedr

Ranked #58 for women · Grade C

Best for: Women who want a low-dose or needle-free way into a GLP-1 and will trade price certainty for that menu — and who will read the billing policy before the second charge lands, because the renewal cycle is not the month the pricing page implies.

The verdict for women

Higher Luna Fit Score: Sesame Care

Sesame Care edges out WellMedr on the Luna Fit Score, 85 to 67 (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.

WellMedr is still a genuine option — a genuinely broad low-dose menu — eight microdose formulations, four of them oral, on top of both injectable molecules and a priced brand path — wrapped around a price you cannot pin down: the $59 and $99 headlines are conditional, and the rate you would actually be charged month to month appears nowhere before the medical intake. Weigh the six women's-health factors below against your own priorities; our WellMedr write-up for women goes through each of them, and if neither of these two is the one, the alternatives to WellMedr we rank for women widens the field.

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

WellMedr

Ranked #58 · Grade C

What we like

  • A real low-dose line rather than a smaller pour of the standard plan: eight microdose formulations, four oral and four injectable, built on tirzepatide or semaglutide with NAD+, B12, inositol, methionine, L-carnitine or magnesium depending on the SKU — the needle-free half of that matters if injections are the thing that has kept you from starting
  • Both molecules plus an FDA-approved brand path priced on the same page — Ozempic from $1,399/mo and Zepbound from $1,599/mo, both month-to-month — so a woman whose clinician wants brand rather than compounded can see the cash cost without opening another tab
  • Tirzepatide is priced the same at every dose: "Same price regardless of dosage" is printed on that plan card, so titrating up to a dose that works does not raise the bill — the question a woman starting low should be asking, and one most of this ranking leaves unanswered

The caveats

  • The headline is not a rate you can hold. The semaglutide card is titled "Monthly Plan", reads "Starting At $59 a month" and is subtitled "Best for flexibility" — while the banner across the top of the same page reads "Lock In $200 OFF Every Month, or $59/mo on 12/month Plans — For Life". Nothing on the page reconciles the two, and there is no term selector to check
  • No standing month-to-month price is published for either compounded molecule, anywhere. Both plan buttons hand you to intake.wellmedr.com, an intake app that serves no price in its own HTML, so the figure you would actually be charged does not exist on the public site — you meet it after the medical intake
  • A "month" here is not a month, and the site gives two different answers about which one it is: the plan cards say medication is "shipped every 4 weeks", which is thirteen shipments a year, while the refund and cancellation policy says the subscription "will automatically renew every 21 days", which is more than seventeen. Either way you are billed more often than the monthly label implies
