Visit MD ExamThe verdict for women
CoreAge Rx edges out MD Exam on the Metabolic-Fit Score, 86 to 42 (B vs C). Someone considering both compounded injection options who wants an advertised flat price without a required subscription and will confirm the exact prescription, state access and refund terms.
MD Exam is still a genuine option — two businesses are described on this one site. The homepage sells a flat program — "as low as $225 per month, which includes telemedicine visits, nutrition and exercise coaching, and medication." The FAQ says it accepts most major insurance, that your cost depends on your plan, and explains how to fax your insurance details in. Nothing reconciles them. The same page also carries two different Miami addresses and two different support addresses. Weigh the six women's-health factors below against your own priorities.
Side-by-side on the six factors
Both providers scored on the same women's-health rubric — the higher side on each factor is marked. See the methodology.
Price, access & features
Price highlights compare average monthly budgets, using 52 weeks ÷ 12 months for weekly cycles. Quoted charges retain their billing units; unknown periods and fee-only or prepaid quotes do not compete.

Metabolic-Fit / 100
CoreAge Rx
Metabolic-Fit 86/100 · Grade B
What we like
- Officially linked public offer advertises $79/month semaglutide and $129/month tirzepatide across doses
- Advertises care and free overnight cold shipping within those prices, with no membership fee
- Public offer describes one-time purchases, no required subscription and the same refill price
The caveats
- Main navigation still shows semaglutide from $99, conflicting with the $79 officially linked offer
- A patient-specific prescription quantity and checkout total were not verified; confirm before paying
- State eligibility depends on therapy; nationwide access should not be assumed
Metabolic-Fit / 100
MD Exam
Metabolic-Fit 42/100 · Grade C
What we like
- $225 a month including medication would sit at the affordable end of our list
- Nutrition and exercise coaching are described as part of the program rather than as add-ons
- It engages with insurance at all, which most of this cash-pay market declines to
The caveats
- A flat cash program and an insurance-billing model are described on the same site with nothing to reconcile them
- Two different Miami addresses and two different support email addresses appear on one page
- Its claim that the active ingredient "has always been available" is the seller's own and is not what the FDA shortage record shows
