Visit LaylaThe verdict for women
CoreAge Rx edges out Layla on the Metabolic-Fit Score, 92 to 40 (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.
Layla is still a genuine option — standing monthly rates of $199 for compounded semaglutide and $299 for compounded tirzepatide, each fronted by a $99 first-month promotion that is the number the marketing actually leads with. Read live on August 21, 2026, the plan cards say it plainly — "Starting at $99 / 1st Month (Originally $199 / month)" — so the discount is real and it lasts exactly one month. Two things sit alongside it that a reader should see. Quarterly plans are also offered at $297 and $449 and are labeled per month on the card, which cannot be reconciled against the cheaper monthly plans from the public page alone, so those figures are not asserted here. And the page was running a Cyber Week banner with a fifty-percent-off countdown reading zero hours, zero minutes and zero seconds — in August. Against that, its disclosure is better than most: three operating entities are named, including the prescribing practices Beluga Health, P.A. and Pennsylvania Medical, P.C., and none of the three has an FDA warning letter. 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
Layla
Ranked #193 · Grade C
What we like
- Standing monthly rates are published on the plan cards rather than only the promotional first month
- Names three operating entities including its prescribing practices, Beluga Health, P.A. and Pennsylvania Medical, P.C.
- None of the three entities has an FDA warning letter
The caveats
- A "Cyber Week" banner and a "50% off, ends in" countdown reading 00:00:00 were running in August — manufactured urgency
- Quarterly plans are labeled per-month at $297 and $449, which cannot be reconciled with the cheaper monthly plans from the public page
- The headline everywhere is the $99 first month, not the $199 and $299 you actually pay from month two
