Wegovy Eligibility
Yes, you likely qualify. Wegovy (semaglutide) is FDA-approved for adults with:
- BMI ≥ 30 (obesity), OR
- BMI ≥ 27 with at least one weight-related condition (high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, etc.)
At BMI 31, you meet the primary criteria.
Online Prescription Services to Consider
Top options:
- Ro Body Program - Includes ongoing provider support and medication management; well-known and user-friendly
- Hims & Hers - Offers GLP-1 consultations with licensed providers
- Found - Specializes specifically in weight management with dedicated care teams
- Calibrate - Combines medication with metabolic health coaching
- Sesame - Can connect you with doctors for telehealth visits at transparent prices
Important Things to Know
- Insurance coverage varies widely - Wegovy can cost $1,300+/month without it
- Shortages have been common - providers may offer compounded semaglutide instead
- A real licensed provider must evaluate you - these services all include a medical consultation
- You'll need ongoing monitoring - legitimate services include follow-up care
I'd suggest starting with Ro or Found as they have strong reputations specifically for weight management programs.
