Quick verdict

Hims & Hers is the better pick for most patients on overall scoring. Same-day prescription, no lock-in, and brand-name confidence. The famous $199 compounded era ended in March 2026 after the Novo Nordisk settlement; new patients now route to branded products only.

That said, Strut Health wins on specific dimensions. One of the cheapest legitimate compounded options in the US market thanks to a niche oral lozenge format. No membership fee, free shipping, free consults, and physician access included. Trade-off: lozenge bioavailability data is thin compared to standard injectable semaglutide.
