Telos Rx is still a genuine option — one of the deepest catalogs we log for a woman managing metabolism and hormones together — semaglutide and tirzepatide in oral, microdosed, and injectable forms, plus bioidentical HRT and a long peptide menu, from a LegitScript-certified, HIPAA-compliant compounder. Weigh the six women's-health factors below against your own priorities.

Luna Fit
Telos Rx
Ranked #19 · Grade B
What we like
- Deep catalog that includes bioidentical HRT — genuinely relevant for women managing metabolism and hormones at once
- Needle-free and oral GLP-1 options, plus microdosed lanes for a gradual on-ramp
- LegitScript-certified and HIPAA-compliant, with HSA/FSA accepted and free shipping
The caveats
- Everything is compounded — not FDA-approved the way brand Ozempic, Wegovy, or Zepbound are
- Pricing is opaque outside GLP-1, and the low rates hinge on annual lock-in
- No named clinicians and thin public reviews, so the oversight signal is harder to verify
Luna Fit
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
