HRT costs through an online clinic per month typically range from $79 to $200 for an all-in subscription plan that includes consultations and monitoring, though pay-per-visit models can cost significantly less if you only pay for the initial appointment (e.g., $49–$259) plus separate medication fees.
Here’s a breakdown of the main cost structures:
| Clinic Model | Monthly Cost Range | What’s Included |
|---|---|---|
| Subscription (All-in) | $79–$200/month | Regular consultations, monitoring, provider messaging, appointment scheduling; medication billed separately in cheaper tiers, or bundled in higher tiers [2][4] |
| Subscription (Medication Included) | $177–$229/month | Consultations + medication (e.g., Hone Health) [4] |
| Pay-Per-Visit | $49/appointment + $20–$60/month meds | One-time consultation fees; no monthly membership; medication paid at pharmacy [1][3] |
| Low-Cost Clinic Access | $12/month (Premium membership) | Provider directory access; medication, shipping, taxes extra [7] |
Medication Costs (Typical Monthly Out-of-Pocket)
- Estrogen pills: $10–$30/month [4][6]
- Estradiol patches: $26–$168/month (generic ~$30–$60 with discount card) [4][6]
- Progesterone: $9–$79/month [4]
- Gels/creams: $15–$30/month (UK) or up to $250/month (US, without insurance) [8][4]

💡 Tip: If you have insurance, check whether it covers consultation fees or medications—many patients reduce out-of-pocket costs to $30/month or less with copays [2][9].
Overall, choose a subscription model if you want consistent care and monitoring, or a pay-per-visit model if you prefer flexibility and lower guaranteed monthly costs.
