Visit KovaThe verdict
CoreAge Rx edges out Kova on the Mom-Tested Score, 94 to 51 (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.
Kova is still a genuine option — kova’s monthly plan costs $249 first month then $299 for semaglutide, and $299 then $399 for tirzepatide. Three-, six- and twelve-month prepaid totals are $537/$894/$1,548 and $747/$1,374/$2,388. Clinical care, medication and delivery are included. Early cancellation can reprice completed or shipped months under the plan terms. 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
- Advertised $79 semaglutide and $129 tirzepatide monthly prices stay the same at every listed dose
- 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
Kova
Ranked #261 · Grade C
What we like
- The full monthly and prepaid plan ladder is published before intake.
- The per-month figures are the real per-month figures: every upfront total is exactly the monthly rate times the term
- You can pay the longer plans monthly instead of in one lump
The caveats
- Early cancellation can reprice completed or shipped months under the applicable plan terms.
- No list of states
- It doesn't name a compounding pharmacy
