Short answer: Noom Med scores higher on our rubric, 7.4/10 against 7.3/10. Full reasoning, pricing and the cases where the other one wins are below.

Noom Med beats Hers overall, scoring 7.4/10 vs 7.3/10. Published pricing is not a like-for-like monthly comparison: Hers is $188 first month, then $298/mo; Noom Med is $79 first month, then $199/mo. Choose Hers for women who want a female-focused platform and can budget at least $188 initially and $298/mo ongoing for a $149 medication path. Choose Noom Med for users who want a low-dose glp-1 with biomarker monitoring and can absorb the step from a $79 starter to $199/mo ongoing.

Watch out forPending federal enforcement action against the parent company.

These are allegations, not findings.Tiered pricing is genuinely confusing, and the cheapest advertised tier ($69 then $99/mo) is metformin rather than a GLP-1, which is easy to mistake for the GLP-1 entry price [Verified 2026-07-27]

Pros & Cons Compared

Hers

Pros

  • +FDA-approved brand paths include Wegovy pill, Foundayo, and Ozempic pill medication from $149 and a Wegovy pen from $199; with the required membership, a $149 medication path totals $188 initially and $298/mo ongoing
  • +Zepbound access via the Lilly/Hims-Hers partnership announced 2026
  • +Publicly traded company (NYSE: HIMS) with strong financial backing and regulatory compliance
  • +Broader women's health platform, integrates weight loss with hormonal, skin, and wellness services

Cons

  • Pending federal enforcement action against the parent company. On July 29, 2026 the FTC, joined by Utah and California acting through Los Angeles County Counsel, filed a complaint against Hims & Hers Health, Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, alleging violations of the FTC Act and the Restore Online Shoppers' Confidence Act over subscription billing, cancellation friction, and sharing consumer health information with advertising platforms. Case status is Pending. These are allegations, not findings.
  • Every medication figure excludes the required Weight Loss Membership ($39 first month, then $149/mo); exact product and dose prices can increase the total above the $188/$298 floor
  • Support runs at big-platform scale, fine for routine refills, less personal if you want high-touch care
  • Compounded pricing starts at $199/mo with stepped pricing at higher doses, budget for the dose you'll end up on, not the entry dose
  • Zepbound medication starts at $299 before the required membership; that path totals $338 in month one and at least $448/mo ongoing, with exact dose pricing potentially higher

Noom Med

Pros

  • +Tiered 2026 entry, $69/mo branded telehealth tier lets users start with just medication access and the coaching app
  • +Microdose GLP-1Rx is $79 for the first 4 weeks then $199/mo billed quarterly, low-dose GLP-1 plus biomarker monitoring for side-effect-sensitive users [Verified 2026-07-27]
  • +Insurance accepted for qualifying plans, can significantly reduce out-of-pocket costs on brand-name meds
  • +Industry-leading behavioral coaching app with years of psychology-based weight loss methodology

Cons

  • Tiered pricing is genuinely confusing, and the cheapest advertised tier ($69 then $99/mo) is metformin rather than a GLP-1, which is easy to mistake for the GLP-1 entry price [Verified 2026-07-27]
  • Full GLP-1Rx program requires 12-week subscription ($149 intro rate applies only for the first few weeks)
  • Medication costs on the $69 tier are out-of-pocket, the low tier price is just the platform
  • App coaching still requires real engagement, skip-prone users waste the behavioral value

Our Verdict

Noom Med edges out Hers with a score of 7.4/10 vs 7.3/10. Published pricing is not a like-for-like monthly comparison: Hers is $188 first month, then $298/mo; Noom Med is $79 first month, then $199/mo. Noom Med accepts insurance, which can significantly reduce your out-of-pocket costs.
