Visit NurxThe verdict
CoreAge Rx edges out Nurx on the Mom-Tested Score, 94 to 61 (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.
Nurx is still a genuine option — a women's-health brand that prescribes Wegovy, Zepbound and other brand pens for pickup at your pharmacy — a $79 first visit and $79 a month, with the medicine billed separately. 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
Nurx
Ranked #150 · Grade C
What we like
- A long-running women's-health brand, with pregnancy and breastfeeding guidance on the weight page
- Its own fees are published plainly: $79 to start, $79 a month
- Prescribes the brand-name pens and helps with insurance approvals
The caveats
- It doesn't sell the GLP-1 — you pick up the pen at your pharmacy and pay that price separately
- Without insurance, its own page puts brand pens at roughly $650 to $1,300 a month
- No compounded option for a lower cash price
