Their standout: oral tirzepatide gum, for people who don't want to inject.

Pros & Cons Compared
Embody
Pros
- +Oral tirzepatide gum is rare. Real option for needle-phobic users. (How well it absorbs vs the FDA-approved injection isn't published.)
- +Cheap first month, $99 for semaglutide or $149 for tirzepatide. Among the lowest entry prices in the category.
- +'Embody Flat' plan is $299/mo flat with no surprise increases, predictable if you pick it from the start.
- +100% money-back guarantee in writing: if you follow the program and don't see results in 6 months, they say they'll make it right.
- +Replies to every negative Trustpilot review, usually within 24 hours.
Cons
- −Two plans run side by side and the switchover isn't always clear at signup: the $149 promo month steps up to $299–$399 from month 2 (Embody confirms both plans in its review replies). Pick 'Embody Flat' at signup if you want one predictable number.
- −Trustpilot rating is a polarized 3.3 / 5 across 46 reviews: 41% five-star, 24% one-star. Price is the top complaint theme, most of it tied to the promo-to-flat switchover above.
- −Embody doesn't name which pharmacy makes the medication, just 'multiple USA certified pharmacies.' This is the norm in the category, most major brands (Embody, Henry, Hims, Yucca, Eden) don't publicly name their pharmacy partners; ask support directly if provenance matters to you.
- −No HIPAA disclosure on their site (HIPAA is the federal law protecting your medical info, most telehealth providers publish a statement confirming they follow it).
- −Compounded medications only, no brand-name Wegovy, Zepbound, Mounjaro, or Ozempic available.
- −If you stop treatment and come back, Embody's doctors will likely restart you at the lowest dose (2.5mg). It's their safety policy; raise your dose history at signup, the prescriber makes the final call.
FeelGood
Pros
- +Compounded semaglutide injection from $149/mo with free shipping and no separate membership or consultation fee
- +Offers an oral compounded semaglutide tablet ($249/mo) for needle-averse patients, a non-injectable route only a handful of platforms provide
- +LegitScript-approved, independent certification that the telehealth/pharmacy operation meets legal and safety standards, which many budget compounded shops lack
- +Money-back weight-loss guarantee plus unlimited 24/7 messaging and appointments included
Cons
- −Does NOT publicly disclose which US states it serves, you can't confirm availability in your state before starting an intake
- −$149 is a 'starting' price (dose-escalating), not flat across all doses, your cost can rise as your dose titrates up, and FeelGood doesn't publish the full dose-by-dose schedule
- −Brand-name 'original' semaglutide injection at $1,999/mo is far above market, NovoCare direct Wegovy is $349/mo and Hers offers Wegovy at $149/mo via the 2026 Novo Nordisk partnership. Never buy brand-name through FeelGood
- −No named medical director, prescribing physicians, compounding pharmacy, founding year, or headquarters disclosed on the site, thin corporate and clinical transparency
- −Self-reported '4.8/5' rating is not tied to a named third-party platform (no linked Trustpilot/BBB), so it can't be independently verified; the advertised '15–20% weight loss' figures are FeelGood's marketing, not FDA-reviewed efficacy data
- −Compounded GLP-1s are not FDA-approved (none are), and FeelGood offers compounded semaglutide only, no tirzepatide
Our Verdict
Embody edges out FeelGood with a score of 7.3/10 vs 7/10. FeelGood offers both brand-name and compounded medications, giving you more flexibility. Choose Embody if you want: people who want the oral tirzepatide gum, or who'll choose the $299/mo 'embody flat' plan at signup for one predictable price. Choose FeelGood if you want: budget-conscious cash-pay patients who want low-cost compounded semaglutide, injection or oral tablet, with free shipping, no membership fees, and a money-back weight-loss guarantee.
