Head-to-head for women
CoreAge Rx vs Gaya Wellness
CoreAge Rx and Gaya Wellness 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 Metabolic-Fit Score — our women's-health rubric.
CoreAge Rx
Higher scoreRanked #1 for women · Grade A−
Metabolic-Fit / 100

Ranked #25 for women · Grade C
Metabolic-Fit / 100
Best for: A woman in perimenopause or menopause who wants weight and hormones managed by the same clinician.
Visit Gaya WellnessThe verdict for women
CoreAge Rx edges out Gaya Wellness on the Metabolic-Fit Score, 92 to 62 (A− vs C). Mothers who want a fixed monthly price, a real clinician rather than an intake quiz, and uninterrupted nationwide access to both semaglutide and tirzepatide while they work out the timing around pregnancy or weaning.
Gaya Wellness is still a genuine option — gaya is a women's practice that treats weight as a hormone problem, which is a genuinely different starting point — and its price ladder rewards reading closely. The $149 tier is "GLP-1 Access", meaning physician oversight without the medication. Premium at $349 is the one that includes it. Concierge at $549 adds hormone therapy for women whose weight and menopause symptoms need handling together. A named physician runs it, Dr. Patel, from a published Florida address. Weigh the six women's-health factors below against your own priorities.

Metabolic-Fit / 100
CoreAge Rx
Ranked #1 · Grade A−
What we like
- A single flat monthly rate — no teaser first month that jumps at the first refill
- A prescriber reviews your history and will actually talk through timing if you're postpartum, nursing, or planning another pregnancy
- Semaglutide and tirzepatide on one chart, so switching molecules doesn't mean switching providers
The caveats
- Not the lowest sticker price — a couple of budget compounders come in under it
- Compounded only; there's no FDA-approved brand Wegovy or Zepbound lane here
- A general metabolic program, not a dedicated OB or hormone practice
Metabolic-Fit / 100
Gaya Wellness
Ranked #25 · Grade C
What we like
- Treats weight, metabolism and hormones as one problem rather than prescribing a GLP-1 in isolation
- Publishes all three tiers with what each includes — access, medication, and medication plus hormone therapy
- A named physician, Dr. Patel, with async messaging between visits and quarterly monitoring
The caveats
- The $149 tier does not include medication — it buys physician oversight and access, and the drug is a separate cost
- $349 for the tier that does include medication is at the premium end of this roster
- The homepage advertises the weight-loss program "From $199/month", which matches none of the three tiers on the program page
