Male Excel at a glance

Semaglutide
Not disclosed
Tirzepatide
Not disclosed
Coverage
39 states
Brand-name GLP-1s
No, compounded only
Oral option
Yes

Male Excel offers semaglutide injections, semaglutide pills and tirzepatide inside its $99-a-month men's hormone membership, but doesn't publish what the GLP-1 medication itself costs.

Best for: Men who want GLP-1 weight care alongside testosterone or thyroid treatment from one physician-led team.

What Male Excel does well

  • Semaglutide injections, semaglutide pills and tirzepatide are all part of its program
  • The $99 monthly membership covers unlimited provider access, check-ins every 60 days and blood work every six months
  • No contract: you can cancel your treatment plan at any time
  • Care is led by named physicians, Peter Fotinos MD and Lorna A. Brudie DO

Why readers look for an alternative

  • GLP-1 medication is billed on top of the $99 monthly membership, and its price isn't published
  • Starting requires a $99 online consultation with an at-home lab kit
  • Not available in Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Connecticut, Hawaii, Idaho, Louisiana, Minnesota, Mississippi, New Hampshire or Rhode Island
  • All medication sales are final; the membership-fee refund guarantee requires following the protocol for 90 days
  • Weight care sits inside a testosterone-focused program rather than a standalone GLP-1 plan
  • Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved products
