Pros & Cons Compared

Bodybuilding Health+

Pros

  • +Competitive entry pricing: $179/mo for compounded semaglutide and $209/mo for compounded tirzepatide undercuts the mid-tier compounded average (~$199/$299) for both formats
  • +Names both its clinicians and its pharmacies: the FAQ credits Lion MD, led by Dr. Ana Lisa Carr MD (NPI 1689841744) and Dr. Kelly Tenbrink MD (NPI 1346482684), and lists four partner pharmacies with phone numbers, Belmar Pharmacy, Strive Pharmacy, Epiq Scripts and Casa Pharma Rx. Most compounded-only platforms in this price tier name neither, and a LegitScript certification seal sits in the footer of every page (verified 2026-09-03).
  • +Multi-month bundles (1, 3, 6, 12 months) with cancel-anytime, no-monthly-membership flexibility, strong fit for users who want to lock in a price without subscription lock-in
  • +Multi-program platform: the same account adds longevity peptides (NAD+ from $129/mo, Sermorelin from $119/mo on its own page), a newer peptide line (GHK-Cu topical $129/mo, glutathione injection $179/mo, PT-141 injection $169/mo) and on-demand ED meds (tadalafil / sildenafil from $96/mo), convenient for users stacking metabolic, longevity and performance protocols

Cons

  • Compounded-only, no brand-name FDA-approved Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic, Mounjaro, or a brand-name oral GLP-1 pill. Compounded oral formats are offered for microdosing, but patients who want an FDA-approved finished product need a different provider for that piece.
  • The same supply carries different prices on different pages. The bundle selector shows tirzepatide at $179/mo for three months, while the tirzepatide product page charges $859 for the same three-month supply, which works out to $286.33/mo, so confirm the total on the page you actually check out from (verified 2026-09-03).
  • Operating entity is Dynamo Group LLC under a brand license, NOT Bodybuilding.com directly. The "Trusted by millions since 1999" framing describes the parent retail brand; the GLP-1 program launched in 2026 and stands on its own record.
  • The binding terms run harder than the marketing copy: all sales are final, prescription products cannot be returned, and medical consult fees are not refundable, with mandatory arbitration under AAA consumer rules, a class-action waiver and Fulton County, Georgia venue. The terms also name a third company, CareValidate, as a payment and liability party, capping its liability at $100 (terms last updated May 7, 2026).

Willow

Pros

  • +Includes monthly provider check-ins and dose adjustments at no extra cost
  • +Daily oral tablets for BOTH semaglutide and tirzepatide, one of the only platforms with a needle-free route on both molecules
  • +$299/mo covers compounded semaglutide at the starting doses, injectable or tablet, with monthly provider support and no separate consultation fee
  • +A US licensed doctor reviews and confirms the prescription the same day, and two-day shipping is free, both stated on the product pages (verified 2026-09-03)

Cons

  • Compounded-only, no brand-name Wegovy or Zepbound through the platform
  • Both headline prices are floors. Tirzepatide starts at $399/mo against $299 for semaglutide, and on the help center pricing article maintenance tirzepatide injections run $499/mo from 8.5 mg, $524/mo at 13.5 mg and $549/mo at 17 mg (checked 2026-09-03)
  • Cash-pay only. Willow does not bill insurance. You pay with an HSA or FSA card at checkout, or pay out of pocket and submit receipts to your insurer yourself, with reimbursement depending on your plan and deductible (checked 2026-09-03)
  • The program auto-renews, and a cancellation has to reach the care team at least two business days before the next processing date to stop a charge. A full refund only applies if you cancel before the prescription goes to the pharmacy, and the informed consent page says orders cannot be cancelled, returned or refunded once shipped (checked 2026-09-03)

Our Verdict

Willow edges out Bodybuilding Health+ with a score of 7.5/10 vs 7.2/10. Published pricing is not a like-for-like monthly comparison: Bodybuilding Health+ is $179/mo month-to-month; Willow is from $299/mo.

Cheapest complete recurring price in our index

Eden Health GLP-1

$99/mo month-to-month, from $34 on a plan · 6.9/10 · Both

Both Bodybuilding Health+ and Willow start above the cheapest complete recurring program we track. Across all 36 providers in our index, the lowest price with affirmative medication, consultation, and shipping inclusion is Eden Health GLP-1 at $99/mo, price checked August 28, 2026. It scores 6.9/10 and is not the highest-scored provider in our full rankings, so this is a cost floor rather than a recommendation. Worth knowing before you decide.
