Visit ShedRxThe verdict
CoreAge Rx edges out ShedRx on the Mom-Tested Score, 94 to 77 (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.
ShedRx is still a genuine option — the widest menu on my whole shortlist — both molecules, drops, lozenges, an oral pill, and real brand-name Wegovy and Zepbound — with a written promise that your price won't climb as your dose does. Then you read the Terms and find a two-month minimum and no refunds once charged. 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 $99, then surprise' step-up in the fine print
- 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
ShedRx
Ranked #19 · Grade C
What we like
- Says in writing that the price is flat at any dose — 'your price never goes up when your dose does'
- Genuinely the widest menu here: injections, drops, lozenges, an oral pill, plus real Wegovy and Zepbound
- Async assessment with no appointment required, and pricing visible before the quiz
The caveats
- The advertised $159 and $239 are 12-month prepay rates; month-to-month is $199 and $299
- Terms require a minimum two-month commitment and say fees are non-refundable once charged — not 'cancel anytime'
- No state list published anywhere on the site, so you can't confirm coverage without starting signup
