Yucca Health publishes no rate for 3-month term, 6-month term, 12-month term; Hims & Hers publishes none for 3-month term, 6-month term, 12-month term. An unpublished term is not necessarily unavailable — it is unpriced in public, which you can only resolve by asking.
A titration year is not twelve months at the maintenance price. Stepping up roughly four weeks per dose before settling at 10 mg/week, the first twelve months work out to $3,096 on Yucca Health and $8,364 on Hims & Hers. The ramp is cheaper than the settled rate on whichever program prices by dose, which is why a first-year quote and a steady-state quote are not the same number.
That calculation is partial: Hims & Hers publishes no price at 2 of them, so the maintenance rate stands in for the missing steps rather than a number the company has stated.
Value Scores are 73.6 for Yucca Health and 27.5 for Hims & Hers, against a tirzepatide category floor of $169. Yucca Health leads by 46.1 points, driven mostly by price.

Where the two programs differ
All-in monthly
Yucca Health is cheaper month to month — $258 against $697, a gap of $439 every month, or $5,268 across a year if both rates hold.
Cancellation terms
Cancellation differs: Yucca Health states Cancel before renewal, while Hims & Hers states Cancel anytime. Read this next to the twelve-month figures — a prepaid discount and a restrictive refund policy are the same decision.
Commitment
Yucca Health asks for Month-to-month; Hims & Hers asks for Membership month-to-month ($39 first month). This is the dimension most likely to change which program is actually cheaper for you, because the lowest rates on both sides are usually attached to the longest terms.
Dose policy
Yucca Health charges one price at every dose; Hims & Hers prices by dose. That difference usually matters more than the headline gap, because the tiered program's advertised figure describes the dose you start on, not the dose you settle at.
Evidence status
The two prices are not equally well evidenced. Yucca Health's figure is provider-stated and Hims & Hers's is reported. Yucca Health rests on the stronger of the two, and the Value Score below reflects that — evidence quality is worth fifteen points and is not a tiebreaker we apply after the fact.
Membership fee
Hims & Hers charges a membership of $149 a month on top of the medication. That is already folded into the all-in figures above — it is broken out here because a membership is a recurring charge that continues even in a month you skip a shipment.
Shipping
Hims & Hers bills shipping separately at $5; the other includes it.
Twelve-month cost
Over twelve months the totals are $3,096 for Yucca Health and $8,364 for Hims & Hers. Yucca Health is lower by $5,268 — a figure worth checking against the cancellation terms below, because a prepaid year is only cheaper if you stay on it.

Hims & Hers Official site
After settling with Novo Nordisk on March 9, 2026 and exiting compounded semaglutide for new patients, Hims & Hers now runs a branded-only GLP-1 service: Wegovy injection $299/month, oral Wegovy $249/month, and Zepbound $399/month, on top of a $149/month membership ($39 first month) plus $5 shipping.
It names its compounding pharmacy — Brand fulfillment (Wegovy, oral Wegovy, Zepbound) + partner pharmacy, recorded as Brand channel — which can be checked against state board licensing and FDA inspection records before you order; commitment terms are Membership month-to-month ($39 first month); cancellation is Cancel anytime; availability is stated as 50 states.
Evidence: reported — sourced from dated third-party reporting; first-party capture pending, captured . Source — Post-settlement pricing reported May–Jun 2026 (Wegovy $299 / oral $249 / Zepbound $399 + $149 membership + $5 shipping); first-party checkout capture pending
Watch: The membership is the number that moves the math: a $299 Wegovy pen becomes ~$453/month all-in. Compare against going to NovoCare or LillyDirect directly.
