How we scored Nu Image Medical
Each factor is judged from Nu Image Medical's actual pricing, disclosures and support, then combined into the Mama-Match Score of 56/100 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.

$99 and $269, both 'from'. 'Trusted nationwide' appears in the marketing, but there's no state-coverage page, so that's a slogan rather than a list — neither the price nor the geography is settled before you apply.
What to expect when you sign up
We walked Nu Image Medical's public signup (August 2026) — a first-hand look at the process. We did not create accounts, enter medical information, or complete checkout, so this is what any visitor sees, not a patient's outcome.
- 1Homepage lists 'As low as $X/mo' starting prices for semaglutide and tirzepatide directly, before intake
- 2Operating since 2008 — branded 'OG since 2008, Pioneering telehealth' — one of the longer operating histories among the providers reviewed here
- 3Claims over 1,000,000 patient encounters and a 4.9/5 rating from 30,000+ verified patients
- 4Also offers a broad menu beyond GLP-1s: ED treatment, testosterone, hormone optimization, hair regrowth
What we noticed
- Longer operating history (since 2008) than most providers among the providers we review, which predate the recent GLP-1 telehealth wave
- 'As low as' framing means the exact price at a working dose isn't guaranteed by the homepage number
- No state-coverage list published anywhere on its site, despite 'trusted nationwide' marketing language
- No named compounding pharmacy or medical director found on the homepage

Nu Image Medical for moms: our verdict
One of the network's longer-established telehealth operators (since 2008) — as low as $99/mo semaglutide, $269/mo tirzepatide — though state coverage isn't itemized beyond a 'trusted nationwide' claim. It runs about $99/mo — toward the affordable end of what we track.
We looked at Nu Image Medical 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 Nu Image Medical actually costs
- Compounded semaglutide — Starting price: $99/mo
- Compounded tirzepatide — Starting price: $269/mo
That lands below the median ongoing price of about $175 across the providers we track for moms — a real cost advantage.
Nu Image Medical's price scales with your dose, so the number you start at is not the number you'll pay at maintenance. Ask what the highest dose costs before you commit.
That price covers the consult, the medication and shipping.
The medications Nu Image Medical prescribes
Nu Image Medical 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. 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. Nu Image Medical publishes no state list, so confirm it serves yours before you pay anything.
Where Nu Image Medical 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.
Look elsewhere if…
- you specifically want an FDA-approved brand-name pen with its own pregnancy and breastfeeding label.
- 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
Nu Image Medical 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: Moms who want a longer operating track record behind the program and are comfortable confirming both the real working-dose price and their state eligibility at intake.
