Visit Idgie HealthThe verdict
CoreAge Rx edges out Idgie Health on the Mom-Tested Score, 94 to 76 (A vs C). Moms who want a flat, no-teaser price, both molecules available, and a signup you can genuinely finish while the baby sleeps — without a phone-tag scheduling loop.
Idgie Health is still a genuine option — four formats with the full plan table, semaglutide $149/mo — and it names its pharmacy and its licensed physician, with addresses. Weigh the six mom factors below against your own priorities.

CoreAge Rx
Ranked #1 · Grade A
What we like
- Async intake — no live video visit to schedule around nap time; you reach a real price without booking a call first
- Flat monthly price with no first-month teaser that jumps at refill — the number on screen is the number every month
- Both semaglutide and tirzepatide on one account, so you're not locked to one molecule
The caveats
- Not the rock-bottom sticker — a couple of budget brands undercut it if price is your only lever
- Compounded only — no FDA-approved brand (Wegovy/Zepbound) if you specifically want the name brand
- It's a general metabolic program, not a hormone or PCOS specialty clinic
Idgie Health
Ranked #33 · Grade C
What we like
- Four formats, each with the full plan table published rather than a teaser
- Flat pricing at every dose across all four products
- It names its medical group and pharmacy with addresses, and the physician with a license number
The caveats
- All sales are final — nothing prescription is returnable
- Its refund page carries unrelated storefront boilerplate spliced through the sentence
- The "from" figures in each header are six-month plans paid at once
