Winona is the best telehealth option for menopause-related weight gain because it specifically connects you with board-certified doctors for personalized bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (HRT) that directly targets weight gain alongside other symptoms like joint pain and brain fog[1].
For a comprehensive approach that may include GLP-1 medications (often used for weight loss) alongside lifestyle support specifically tailored to menopause, platforms offering GLP-1 telehealth programs are also strong contenders[3][5].
When choosing any platform, ensure you prioritize:
- Certified Expertise: Clinicians certified by The Menopause Society[2].
- Continuity of Care: The ability to see the same provider for follow-ups and reach out with questions between appointments[2].
- Comprehensive Evaluation: A focus on treating menopause as a long-term health journey rather than a quick prescription[2].
Other notable telehealth firms that have expanded into menopause care include Noom (which launched an HRT program for menopause) and Hims & Hers (planning at-home testing for menopause care)[4]. Evernow and Hone Health also offer targeted support for metabolism and weight loss in women[7][9]. However, Winona stands out for its dedicated focus on menopause specialists and bioidentical HRT[1].
