Hims
Reviewed by Iacob Pastina, Independent Researcher
One of the largest and most recognized men's telehealth platforms in the US, offering compounded GLP-1 medications with a polished app experience and strong brand trust.
Hims scores 7.9/10 in our independent review, starting at $175/mo for compounded GLP-1 medications. Hims is the household name in men's telehealth, and their GLP-1 program leverages that brand strength with a polished experience and solid infrastructure. At $199/mo for compounded semaglutide, you're paying for brand confidence and app quality more than clinical depth.

Visit HimsOur Verdict
Hims brings unmatched brand recognition and app quality to men's GLP-1 access, but the $199/mo price for compounded-only semaglutide is above what smaller competitors charge. Best for men who value the security of a large, publicly traded company over maximum value or personalized care.
Key differentiator: The largest publicly traded men's telehealth company offering GLP-1s — unmatched brand recognition, regulatory compliance, and app quality.
