Head-to-head for women
CoreAge Rx vs TelePeptide
CoreAge Rx and TelePeptide 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
Best for: Someone confident enough about a year on treatment to prepay one, who wants an oral option and an all-inclusive price.
Visit TelePeptideThe verdict for women
CoreAge Rx edges out TelePeptide on the Metabolic-Fit Score, 92 to 37 (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.
TelePeptide is still a genuine option — every price here comes with the same four words attached, and they change what the number means: "with annual prepay". Compounded semaglutide starts at $169 a month with annual prepay, tirzepatide at $214, and the oral versions at $199 and $219 — but the phrase "month-to-month" does not appear anywhere on the site, so there is no published way to pay by the month at all. At $169 that is a little over two thousand dollars committed before your first injection. What you get for it is genuinely all-inclusive — clinician, medication and shipping in the one figure — plus dissolvable tablet and troche options for anyone avoiding needles, and coverage in 48 states and DC. 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
TelePeptide
Ranked #230 · Grade C
What we like
- All-inclusive: clinician, medication and shipping are inside the price
- Oral options for both molecules — a dissolvable tablet and a troche — not just injections
- States coverage published rather than left vague: 48 states plus DC
The caveats
- Every published price is conditional on annual prepay — at $169 a month that is over $2,000 committed up front
- "Month-to-month" appears nowhere on the site, so there is no published option to pay monthly
- Prices are "starting at", so your dose may move them
