Visit KinaThe verdict for women
CoreAge Rx edges out Kina on the Metabolic-Fit Score, 92 to 54 (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.
Kina is still a genuine option — a menopause clinic that treats GLP-1 weight care as a menopause problem, which almost nothing else on this roster does. Four routes are published with prices attached: semaglutide injection at $199 a month, semaglutide dissolving tablets at $279, tirzepatide injection at $249 and tirzepatide sublingual drops at $229, flat at every dose, with anti-nausea support included free for the first two months. The catch is a real one and it is not hidden in the small print so much as split across two pages. The weight page promises no membership and one all-in price; the Terms you actually agree to describe membership plans, recurring charges, and medication billed separately on top. Get which one applies to you in writing before you subscribe. 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
Kina
Ranked #48 · Grade C
What we like
- Genuinely menopause-first — the weight care is framed around hormonal change rather than bolted onto a general weight clinic
- Four delivery routes published with prices: two semaglutide, two tirzepatide, including sublingual drops and dissolving tablets
- Flat pricing at every dose on all four, stated plainly as 'same price at every dose, no surprise increases'
The caveats
- Its own pages contradict each other on the central question: the weight page says '$0 membership or hidden fees, ever' while the Terms describe membership plans, recurring charges, and medication 'billed separately'
- The Terms are what you legally attest to, and they say membership fees are non-refundable once a clinician has reviewed your intake
- Shipped medication orders are non-refundable under the same clause
