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

Strut Health

Pros

+Specializes in oral compounded semaglutide, the go-to for patients who absolutely won't do injections
+Needle-free oral semaglutide tablets from $99/mo, one of the lowest oral entry prices in the table, with oral tirzepatide ($199/mo) and auto-refill injectables ($149 to $199/mo) if you switch formats
+Clear educational content about oral semaglutide absorption and how to maximize effectiveness
+Simple enrollment: online questionnaire, async provider review, medication shipped to your door

Cons

−Compounded only, no brand-name Wegovy or Zepbound. Strut does not publish formulation-specific pharmacokinetic or comparative outcome evidence for its oral tablets, so their absorption and weight-loss results versus approved injections are unknown.
−Compounded oral semaglutide is not FDA-approved as a finished product or established as bioequivalent to approved oral or injectable semaglutide; do not infer equivalent dosing or results

Our Verdict

Hers edges out Strut Health with a score of 7.3/10 vs 6.2/10. Published pricing is not a like-for-like monthly comparison: Hers is $188 first month, then $298/mo; Strut Health is from $99/mo. Hers offers both brand-name and compounded medications, giving you more flexibility.
