HRT Costs Through Online Clinics
Prices vary depending on the type of HRT and the clinic, but here are some common options:
Telehealth Platforms
- Wisp – Around $40–$75/month for prescriptions; consultation fees vary
- Midi Health – Visits covered by insurance; medication costs depend on your plan (focused on women 40+)
- Alloy – Around $30–$75/month for estrogen patches/pills; includes ongoing care
- Winona – Around $75–$99/month, includes compounded hormones and consultations
- Hims/Hers – Testosterone or estrogen options starting around $50–$90/month
- Defy Medical – More comprehensive programs, can run $100–$200+/month
What Affects the Price
- Type of hormone (estrogen, progesterone, testosterone)
- Compounded vs. FDA-approved brand-name medications
- Whether insurance is accepted
- Consultation fees (sometimes separate)
Tips
- Midi and Wisp work with insurance, which can significantly reduce costs
- Compounded hormones (common at Winona) are often cheaper but not FDA-approved
- Generic prescriptions through GoodRx can sometimes be cheaper than clinic bundles
