Visit Obu HealthThe verdict
CoreAge Rx edges out Obu Health on the Mom-Tested Score, 94 to 60 (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.
Obu Health is still a genuine option — starting From $190/mo semaglutide and $239/mo tirzepatide, with two named compounding pharmacies and a real self-serve cancel-anytime policy — but no state list published anywhere, so confirm your own state first.

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
Obu Health
Ranked #89 · Grade C
What we like
- Names two real compounding pharmacies with full addresses — and lets you redirect to your own local one
- Self-serve 'cancel at any time' policy, published on its own site
- Doctor review in about 24 hours per its FAQ; video/phone required only in some states
The caveats
- No published state list
- Nothing on the site is written specifically for a nursing or postpartum timeline
- "Starting From" pricing means your actual dose may run higher than the headline number
