Visit Telos RxThe verdict
CoreAge Rx edges out Telos Rx on the Mom-Tested Score, 94 to 81 (A vs B−). 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.
Telos Rx is still a genuine option — a flat-price pitch with a needle-free option and a genuinely five-minute async signup — but the eye-catching $49/$99 are first-month intros on multi-month plans, and the ongoing rate isn't published on the site. 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
Telos Rx
Ranked #13 · Grade B−
What we like
- Both molecules plus a sublingual option and a low-dose microdose tier
- Five-minute async signup — no video visit, and 'not approved, pay nothing'
- Cancel anytime with one click from the portal
The caveats
- The $49/$99 headlines are first-month intros tied to multi-month plans
- The ongoing plan rate isn't published on the site — the only no-prepay number is ~$399/mo
- State coverage isn't listed, and no pharmacy or medical director is named
