Tirzepatide pricing
Enhance.MD does not offer tirzepatide. Hims & Hers offers tirzepatide without a published price we could capture.
Semaglutide pricing
Only Enhance.MD publishes a semaglutide price here: Semaglutide runs $249 a month all-in at the standing rate ($212 on intro/plan terms). Hims & Hers offers semaglutide without a published price.
Different products, not just different prices
Hims & Hers fulfills the FDA-approved product — reviewed manufacturing, verified identity and sterility, stable legal status — while Enhance.MD sells compounded medication: pharmacy-prepared, not FDA-reviewed, and operating under the narrower post-shortage pathways our legal guide tracks. The compounded discount is partly a risk premium; whether it's worth taking depends on the pharmacy behind it and your tolerance for regulatory turbulence.
Transparency
Enhance.MD: Source-verified (verified 2026-08-08); dispensing pharmacy not publicly named. Hims & Hers: No price published (verified 2026-08-05); names its pharmacy — brand fulfillment; compounded program closed to new patients. In this market, a named pharmacy and a dated, source-verified price are worth real money — they are what let you check the claim instead of trusting it.
Commitment & cancellation
Enhance.MD: none month-to-month; term plans paid per schedule. Hims & Hers: plan recurs; plan recurs until cancelled.
Enhance.MD: no published price captured; Hims & Hers: brand fulfillment (Zepbound $299–$449 / Wegovy $349); best prepaid: Enhance.MD at $212/mo effective; semaglutide: Enhance.MD $249; verified floor $215 (NexLife); brand rails $349–$449. Basis: all-in monthly, 10 mg maintenance, capture-dated in the dataset.
The semaglutide board
Only Enhance.MD fields a verified semaglutide price here — $249/month all-in (#12 of 19) — while Hims & Hers routes semaglutide demand to brand Wegovy at $349 flat. For a buyer starting on the cheaper molecule with a likely upgrade later, single-molecule programs mean a future re-shop; dual-molecule ones price the whole arc.
The five normalizations, applied to this pair
1 · All-in, not advertised. Enhance.MD publishes no figure to normalize; Hims & Hers bills at manufacturer/insurance rates plus any stated program fee. 4 · Evidence tiered. Enhance.MD: source-verified, read 2026-08-08; Hims & Hers: no price published, read 2026-08-05. 5 · Pharmacy weighed. Enhance.MD names no pharmacy; Hims & Hers names brand fulfillment; compounded program closed to new patients — in a pharmacy-variance market, disclosure is a scored asset. Run the same five on any roundup you read and most published “cheapest” lists reorder themselves.
Fine print, itemized
Enhance.MD: no membership — the medication figure is the billed figure; prepaid 12-month plan at $212/mo effective; term plans paid per schedule; commitment: none month-to-month. Hims & Hers: no membership — the medication figure is the billed figure; plan recurs until cancelled. The pattern to police on both sides is the same: memberships that outlive the medication order, renewal-relative cancellation deadlines, and prepaid terms whose refund language matters more than their discount in a year of live litigation. Cancel in writing; screenshot everything.
Transparency, audited
Enhance.MD carries source-verified pricing (last read 2026-08-08); its dispensing pharmacy is not publicly named, so the five pharmacy questions (name, 503A/503B status, state licensure, certificate of analysis, formulation) are your pre-purchase homework. Hims & Hers carries no price published pricing (last read 2026-08-05); pharmacy disclosure is its strong suit — brand fulfillment; compounded program closed to new patients, brand fulfillment. Our weighting is unapologetic: in a market of identical molecule names, a dated source-verified price and a named pharmacy are the two claims a buyer can actually check, and they carry 25 of 100 formula points between them — the methodology shows the math, and the pharmacy guide decodes every answer the five questions can return.
Switching between them
Moving from Enhance.MD to Hims & Hers (or back) is administratively unglamorous: complete the new program's intake, let its prescriber issue a fresh prescription to its pharmacy, and cancel the old subscription in writing — prescriptions don't transfer between telehealth programs, and neither do prepaid balances, which is the quiet reason month-to-month terms are worth their premium.
Refills, shipping, and the week-to-week reality
The unglamorous layer — how the medication actually reaches you and stays on schedule — splits like this: Enhance.MD: shipping included; consultation included; async visit model. Hims & Hers: shipping included; consultation included in plan; async visit model. Cold-chain shipments run 3–7 days across the market; the recurring failure modes are refill-timing gaps and pharmacy backlogs, so whichever program wins here, order refills a week early and confirm the pharmacy’s current turnaround at intake.
Who should pick which
Pick Enhance.MD if you'll prepay for the $212 effective rate. Pick Hims & Hers if a named pharmacy is non-negotiable for you; only the FDA-approved product will do. Neither answer is universal — which is the argument for choosing from data with dates on it rather than from whichever ad loaded first.
What verification would take
For Hims & Hers, ranking would require: any published price at all, on a page we can capture and date; the dose structure (flat or scaled, with the 10 mg tier stated); the pharmacy's name, 503A/503B status, and state licensure; commitment and cancellation terms verbatim. We publish the checklist because the gap is fixable — providers that clear it get ranked on the same arithmetic as everyone else, and readers who ask these questions get the answers this page can't yet print.
If neither one fits
The dataset's bench is deep; the closest verified third options to this matchup's price band are NexLife at $215 (flat, no membership, named pharmacy); Yucca Health at $258 (flat, no membership); IVIM Health at $278 (dose-scaled, $75 membership included) — or skip straight to the rankings page, where every standard “cheapest / best / no-commitment” question is answered in one sourced sentence.
The verdict
This one is a product decision more than a price decision — cheapest-possible compounded versus FDA-approved brand. Both records, with dates and sources, live in the pricing database.
