Higher Rated

Hims

#9 of 52

7.9/10

The household name in men's telehealth, publicly traded as Hims & Hers Health (NYSE: HIMS). In 2026 Hims added FDA-approved brand-name Wegovy (injection and pill) and Ozempic through a direct Novo Nordisk partnership, alongside their existing compounded semaglutide program. Brand recognition and product breadth are real strengths. The trade-off: Hims' verified Trustpilot rating is 3.0 stars across 8,286 reviews (May 2026), significantly below smaller competitors like Henry Meds (4.5) or Eden Health (4.5). The 1-star pool is 28%, the highest 1-star rate in our table, clustered around subscription/billing complaints.

Pros & Cons Compared

Hims

Pros

+Publicly traded company (NYSE: HIMS), SEC-filed financials, regulatory accountability that private competitors don't have.
+2026 Novo Nordisk partnership, FDA-approved Wegovy injection, Wegovy pill, and Ozempic now available directly through Hims. Real brand-name access from a single platform.
+$199/mo all-inclusive for compounded semaglutide, including consultations and shipping.
+Polished app and web experience, among the best user interfaces in men's telehealth.
+8,286 verified Trustpilot reviews is the second-largest review volume in our table (after Henry's 12,461), significant real-world adoption.

Cons

−Trustpilot rating is 3.0 stars / 8,286 reviews (May 2026), significantly below Henry Meds (4.5), Eden Health (4.5), Yucca Health (4.6), MEDVi (4.4). The lowest customer-experience signal of any major brand we track.
−28% of Trustpilot reviews are 1-star, the highest 1-star rate in our table. Top complaint themes: subscription handling, unexpected charges, customer service responsiveness.
−Hims reviews span ALL their products (ED, hair loss, mental health, weight loss), not just GLP-1. But the rating still applies because most users don't separate experiences by product.
−'Hims Oral Kit' is NOT a GLP-1, it's a non-GLP-1 metabolic combination (metformin + bupropion + topiramate + B12 + naltrexone). Easy to confuse with their compounded semaglutide. Read the product page carefully before signing up.
−Brand Wegovy at $599/mo is not competitive with LillyDirect/NovoCare cash prices or with Hers ($149/mo for the same product via the same Novo partnership).
−Generic high-volume support, large patient base means less personalized attention than smaller competitors.

Noom Med

Pros

+Tiered 2026 entry, $69/mo branded telehealth tier lets users start with just medication access and the coaching app
+New Microdose GLP-1Rx program ($99-149/mo), low-dose GLP-1 + biomarker monitoring for sensitive users
+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 creates confusion, $69, $99-149, or $149-349 depending on tier
−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

Hims edges out Noom Med with a score of 7.9/10 vs 7.4/10. If budget is your priority, Noom Med starts at $99/mo compared to Hims's $199/mo. Noom Med accepts insurance, which can significantly reduce your out-of-pocket costs. Choose Hims if you want: men who want a well-known publicly-traded brand and fda-approved wegovy through the 2026 novo nordisk partnership, but should know going in that hims' customer-experience signal is weaker than smaller competitors. Choose Noom Med if you want: users who want a tiered entry into glp-1 care, from $99/mo microdose all-in (low-dose + biomarkers + coaching) up to a full $349/mo medication + coaching program.
