How we scored MEDGm
Each factor is judged from MEDGm's actual pricing, disclosures and support, then combined into the Mama-Match Score of 61/100 using the same weighted six-factor framework we apply to every provider — never influenced by whether a provider pays us.
The start feels transactional — more cash register than welcome.
The cost is unpredictable, hidden behind a quiz, or in the premium range.
Little public detail about who oversees your care, and how.
Wide coverage, though not confirmed in every state.
Support is thin once the prescription ships.
Canceling carries real friction — commitments, notice windows or non-refundable charges.

It names four dispensing pharmacies and OpenLoop as the prescriber, which is more than almost anyone discloses, and carries brand Wegovy, Zepbound and Ozempic beside a compounded line from $179 a month. Read two things before enrolling. The brand products are sold as a membership plus a medication cost the site never publishes, and that membership appears at two different figures on the same page. And the terms say a provider may switch your molecule, counting staying enrolled as your consent and with the charges continuing.
Pricing
Prices re-verified
| Medication | Monthly | Plan |
|---|---|---|
| Compounded semaglutide | $179 | GLP-1 injection, one a week — priced by form, not by moleculePublished as “STARTING AT $179”, which is a floor and not a rate. The product page never says which molecule the injection contains; the terms confirm both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are in scope, and the price is the same with either. |
| Compounded tirzepatide | $179 | GLP-1 injection, one a week — priced by form, not by moleculeThe same figure as semaglutide, because the price attaches to the form and not to the drug. Most charge $80 to $150 more a month for the dual agonist. |
| Oral semaglutide | $249 | GLP-1 tablet, one dissolvable tablet a dayAlso a “starting at” figure. The daily tablet costs $70 a month more than the weekly injection. |
| Oral tirzepatide | $249 | GLP-1 tablet, one dissolvable tablet a dayThe same figure again, for the same reason. ⛔ No brand row is recorded: Wegovy, Zepbound and Ozempic are genuinely offered, but with the medication price unpublished. |

What we like
- Names four dispensing pharmacies outright, with links and phone numbers
- Names OpenLoop as the prescribing partner rather than leaving it vague
- Real brand access — Wegovy, Zepbound and Ozempic — beside the compounded line
- The same price with either molecule, where most charge more for the dual agonist
The caveats
- The compounded products never name the molecule on the page you buy from
- The terms let a provider switch your molecule, and staying enrolled counts as your consent
- Brand medications are charged as a membership plus a medication cost that is never published
- The membership appears at two different figures on one page, $99 and $171
- Nothing about pregnancy, breastfeeding or postpartum timing
MEDGm for moms: our verdict
It names four pharmacies and who prescribes, and carries brand Wegovy, Zepbound and Ozempic beside its compounded line from $179 a month. It runs about $179/mo.
We looked at MEDGm the way moms actually have to: not just the monthly cost, but the right timing around pregnancy and nursing and honest, clear pricing from the start — the parts a generic weight-loss review skips.
What MEDGm actually costs
- Compounded semaglutide — GLP-1 injection, one a week — priced by form, not by molecule: $179/mo
- Compounded tirzepatide — GLP-1 injection, one a week — priced by form, not by molecule: $179/mo
- Oral semaglutide — GLP-1 tablet, one dissolvable tablet a day: $249/mo
- Oral tirzepatide — GLP-1 tablet, one dissolvable tablet a day: $249/mo
That's roughly in line with our list's median of ~$179/mo.
That price covers the consult, the medication and shipping.
The medications MEDGm prescribes
MEDGm prescribes semaglutide and tirzepatide — the two molecules with the strongest published weight-loss results, and having both on one account matters when insulin resistance (common with PCOS and after gestational diabetes) makes tirzepatide the better fit. It can point you toward FDA-approved brand-name pens as well as the compounded versions — approved products carry the manufacturer's own pregnancy and breastfeeding label, which is cleaner to hand to an OB-GYN.
There's a needle-free oral or sublingual option on the menu, which appeals to moms who have been putting off injections — just set your expectations: oral and buccal delivery of these peptides is far less studied than the injectable versions used in the trials.
Where it operates. MEDGm lists its coverage as: All 50 states and DC, qualified in its own terms.
Where MEDGm fits — and where it doesn't — for moms
A good fit if…
- the monthly cost is a real barrier and you want a low, predictable number.
- you may need to switch between semaglutide and tirzepatide as your body and your hormones change.
- uninterrupted nationwide access matters to you — a move for the family shouldn't interrupt your care.
Look elsewhere if…
- you'd rather have a clinician talk the timing through with you, with the right timing around pregnancy and nursing in mind — that's what our #1 pick, CoreAge Rx, is built for.
Trust, safety and oversight
Our confidence is moderate — the core data holds up, but some details (state availability, program mechanics) aren't fully public. As with any compounded GLP-1, the most useful thing moms can do is confirm which licensed pharmacy fills the prescription and what's in the formula — we explain how we score oversight in our scoring methodology.
A standing caution for moms: GLP-1 medications are not proven safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and every label advises against use. None of this changes that — plan the timing with your own healthcare provider.
The bottom line
MEDGm is a reasonable option — weigh it on the right timing around pregnancy and nursing and honest, clear pricing from the start against the alternatives below. For most moms, CoreAge Rx is still the best choice overall — see why it tops our ranking.
The bottom line
Best for: Someone who wants a named pharmacy and a named prescriber behind the prescription, and who will confirm in writing which molecule she gets and whether it can be changed.

MEDGm, answered
- Which drug would they give me?
- The product page does not say. It sells “GLP-1 Injections” and “GLP-1 Tablets”, and the only molecules named there are the brand ones. The terms confirm both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are in scope, and the price is the same with either because it attaches to the form you choose rather than the drug. Ask which molecule you are prescribed before starting.
- Can they change my molecule?
- Yes, and the terms are explicit. They say a provider may decide a different formulation, dose or product is clinically appropriate — including a different molecule, tirzepatide instead of semaglutide or the other way round — and that unless you cancel, staying enrolled is your consent to the change, with the subscription and fee continuing. If you have a reason to want one molecule specifically, put it in writing.
- What do the brand medications cost?
- MEDGm does not publish it. Zepbound and the Wegovy pill or pen appear as “$99 MEMBERSHIP + COST” and Ozempic as “$171 MEMBERSHIP + COST”, with the medication cost left blank. Note too that those are two different membership figures on the same page. The compounded line is the only part of the menu you can budget before applying.
Prices, states and verification reflect what MEDGm disclosed publicly at our last review; the Mama-Match Score is our editorial judgment under the published methodology.
