- Meet CoreAge RxCoreAge RxOur #1 pick
$99/mo semaglutide, $149/mo tirzepatide, one flat price with both medications in a single account — and an intake that walks you through it instead of cornering you with a quiz.
- Meet CareBareRX
$199–249/mo semaglutide, $299–356/mo tirzepatide depending on plan — but you only see those numbers after the intake, and the 3-month plan costs more per month than monthly.
- Meet Enhance MD
$249/mo semaglutide, $329/mo tirzepatide with no commitment ($212 and $280 on the 12-month plan), a named Medical Director and a real video visit before anything is prescribed.

How we scored New Wave Health
Each factor is judged from New Wave Health's actual pricing, disclosures and support, then combined into the Mama-Match Score of 44/100 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.
Coverage is limited or gated behind a signup.
Support is thin once the prescription ships.
Canceling carries real friction — commitments, notice windows or non-refundable charges.
How we verified this review
- Last reviewed

- Confidence
- Medium
- Primary source
- mynewwavehealth.com
It publishes no price for either molecule. The only figure on the site is a “from $149” attached to no product, and every treatment page says “consult us”. Thirty days' notice to cancel, and the same application as two other brands.
What we like
- It names its company, New Wave Health LLC, and says where it operates from
- It offers a microdose alongside the two usual molecules
The caveats
- It publishes no price for semaglutide or tirzepatide anywhere
- The site's only figure, “from $149,” is attached to no product
- Canceling takes thirty days' notice and anything already started is non-refundable
- Its FAQ says all 50 states and its own location answer says something else
- The site is the same application as two other GLP-1 brands, with the same patient photo
- Nothing about pregnancy, breastfeeding or postpartum
New Wave Health for moms: our verdict
It names both molecules and prices neither: the only figure on the site is a “from $149” attached to no product. It runs about $149/mo — toward the affordable end of what we track.
We looked at New Wave Health 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 New Wave Health actually costs
The medications New Wave Health prescribes
New Wave Health prescribes semaglutide (the active drug in Wegovy and Ozempic). These are compounded formulas from a licensed pharmacy — the reason the price stays low — but compounded GLP-1s are not FDA-approved finished products the way Wegovy and Zepbound are.
Where it operates. New Wave Health lists its coverage as: “All 50 states” in its FAQ, unconfirmed: its own location answer says otherwise.
Where New Wave Health 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.
- uninterrupted nationwide access matters to you — a move for the family shouldn't interrupt your care.
Look elsewhere if…
- you specifically want an FDA-approved brand-name pen with its own pregnancy and breastfeeding label.
- you want friction-free cancellation — the fine print here is where the complaints cluster.
- 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.
One line that applies to every provider on this site: no GLP-1 is proven safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and the labels advise against use. This is a review of a commercial program, not a green light — the decision about timing is yours and your healthcare provider's.
The bottom line
New Wave Health is a genuine bargain for the price — 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: Almost nobody comparing prices today — there is no published price to compare.

New Wave Health, answered
- What does semaglutide cost here?
- They do not say. The number is not on the homepage, not on any of the three treatment pages and not in the FAQ: all that exists is “from $149 a month,” without saying of what. You learn the price after intake, which is exactly the order to avoid while you are still comparing.
- How is this like other brands?
- In nearly everything. The site runs the same compiled application as two other GLP-1 brands: same file, same legal text apart from the company name, same patient photo under the same name with the same pound count. If you are comparing two of those three, you are not comparing two opinions.
- Can I cancel whenever I want?
- It asks for thirty days' notice before the next billing cycle, and consultations, visits and filled prescriptions are non-refundable. It is the same clause, word for word, that its two sibling brands use.
Prices, states and verification reflect what New Wave Health disclosed publicly at our last review; the Mama-Match Score is our editorial judgment under the published methodology. This is gentle background reading, not medical advice — GLP-1 medications are not established as safe in pregnancy or breastfeeding. See our medical disclaimer and how we're funded.
