Pros & Cons Compared
Hers
Pros
- +2026 Novo Nordisk partnership, FDA-approved Wegovy pen and Wegovy oral pill from $149/mo, one of the lowest brand-name GLP-1 prices on the market
- +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
- −Membership + medication are billed separately ($39 first month / $149 ongoing membership), so total both line items before comparing prices
- −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 access priced at ~$1,899/mo (brand cash) via the Lilly partnership, read as access, not value
Yucca Health
Pros
- +Two named board-certified doctors (Dr. Michael Wasef MD and Dr. Andrew Sakla DO), most compounded GLP-1 providers don't publicly name their prescribers.
- +4.6 stars across 1,065 verified Trustpilot reviews, 84% give 5 stars. Top complimented theme: customer service.
- +Cheap if you commit: $146/mo for compounded semaglutide on the 6-month plan.
- +Buy-now-pay-later through Klarna, Affirm, and Afterpay, unusual flexibility in this category, useful for spreading the 6-month upfront cost.
- +24-hour async approval, no live video visit required. Faster onboarding than competitors that need a scheduled call.
- +UPS 2-Day Air shipping included. Onboarding call from a real human (multiple Trustpilot reviewers name 'Hazel' and 'Johann' from the team).
- +Replies to 100% of negative Trustpilot reviews, usually within 48 hours.
Cons
- −Compounded-only, no FDA-approved Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic, or Mounjaro.
- −The $146/mo price requires a 6-month upfront commitment (month-to-month is meaningfully more expensive). The Klarna/Affirm/Afterpay financing exists to spread exactly that upfront cost.
- −No live tele-visit option, only async review. Faster, but less depth if you have a complex health history and want a provider you can talk to.
- −Pharmacy partner not named publicly. Yucca says 'U.S. licensed pharmacies' but doesn't disclose which one.
- −Founders and detailed company history not on the site.
- −Refund policy is mentioned but not detailed publicly, get the cancellation terms in writing before paying for the 6-month plan.
