CoreAge Rx vs TeleDocs360

Visit TeleDocs360The verdict for a first step
CoreAge Rx edges out TeleDocs360 on the Mama-Match Score, 94 to 39 (A vs C). Moms who want a clear, honest first step — a real clinician instead of a questionnaire, a flat price, and the freedom to pause when life needs you to.
TeleDocs360 is still a genuine option — it says "flat price" under $299 a month for semaglutide and $399 for tirzepatide, and then further down the same page it charges $349 for semaglutide at 2.0 mg a week and $649 for tirzepatide at 12.5 and 15 mg. So it is not flat, and the difference lands exactly where many of us end up after titrating — 63% more for tirzepatide at the top. To be fair, the doctor, the medicine and the shipping really are inside that number, and there is phentermine at $149 if you would rather not take a GLP-1 at all. Weigh the six first-timer factors below against your own priorities.

Mama-Match
CoreAge Rx
Rank #1 · Grade A
What we like
- One flat monthly price, with no teaser rate that jumps after the first month — you know the number before you commit
- A clinician reads your history and will genuinely talk timing with you if you're postpartum, breastfeeding, or trying to conceive
- Semaglutide and tirzepatide in one account, so you and a clinician can choose — and switch — without starting over
The caveats
- Not the rock-bottom teaser price — a couple of marketplaces dangle a lower first-month number
- Compounded medication only, not FDA-approved brand-name Ozempic or Wegovy
- A general metabolic program, not a dedicated OB-GYN or hormone consult
Mama-Match
TeleDocs360
Rank #292 · Grade C
What we like
- Doctor, medicine and shipping are all inside the price
- It does publish the higher-dose prices instead of leaving you to find out later
- Phentermine at $149 if a GLP-1 is not what you want
The caveats
- It calls the price "flat" and then charges more for higher doses on the same page — tirzepatide $399 to $649
- Semaglutide goes from $299 to $349 at 2.0 mg a week
- It does not say which states it covers
