The verdict for women

Higher Luna Fit Score: Effecty

Effecty edges out Sprout Health on the Luna Fit Score, 87 to 86 (B+ vs B). Women who want the flexibility of both compounded and FDA-approved brand medication from a LegitScript-accredited, nationwide provider.

Sprout Health is still a genuine option — a LegitScript-certified desk that pairs low-cost compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide with a real brand-name Wegovy and Zepbound path — and a near-frictionless, often visit-free start. Weigh the six women's-health factors below against your own priorities.

Sprout Health

Ranked #9 · Grade B

What we like

  • LegitScript-certified with a listed address and contact line
  • Both compounded ($149 semaglutide / $199 tirzepatide) and a genuine brand-name Wegovy/Zepbound route
  • Low-friction intake — no labs and often no telehealth visit required

The caveats

  • Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved
  • No oral or sublingual route — injectable only
  • Thin transparency — no named medical director, and state availability is quiz-gated

Effecty

Ranked #6 · Grade B+

What we like

  • FDA-approved brand access plus compounded, both molecules
  • LegitScript-accredited — a meaningful oversight signal when hormones are involved
  • Nationwide across all 50 states

The caveats

  • No oral/sublingual form
  • Not a hormone-specialty program; PCOS framing is general
