1 of the 8 programs below lists semaglutide for less than Medical Health Institute's $100 a month.
Medical Health Institute is a multi-service telehealth provider (weight loss, testosterone therapy, peptide therapy) advertising GLP-1 weight loss 'starting at $100/mo' a figure the company itself footnotes as contingent.
Best for: Shoppers comparing across TRT, peptides, and weight loss under one provider who don't need public pricing detail up front.
What Medical Health Institute does well
- Advertises a competitively low $100/mo entry price for GLP-1 weight loss
- Offers multiple service lines (weight loss, TRT, peptide therapy) under one provider
- LegitScript and HIPAA-compliance badges both displayed on the homepage
Why readers look for an alternative
- The $100/mo headline price carries the company's own asterisk — '*Based on pharmacy availability' — meaning it is explicitly not a guaranteed rate before intake
- No dose tier or even which drug (semaglutide vs. tirzepatide) the $100 figure applies to is disclosed anywhere public
- Claims 'Transparent pricing' and 'no surprise fees' while publishing no actual itemized price breakdown beyond the asterisked floor
- It doesn't name a medical director or compounding pharmacy, list its states or disclose lab testing
