Hidden fees to watch for

Published starting prices rarely include all costs. These are the most common fee gaps buyers miss when comparing Defy Medical and HerMD.

Defy Medical

Medication changes, shipping, or premium tiers may still change the final bill.

HerMD

Medication changes, shipping, or premium tiers may still change the final bill.

Lab monitoring (both)

Most telehealth programs do not include lab work in the monthly fee. Expect $75–$150 per panel, required 2–4× per year for any hormone or TRT program.

Initiation and intake fees

Some providers charge a one-time intake fee ($50–$199) on top of the first monthly payment. This is not always visible on the pricing page.

Defy Medical pros and cons

One of the most clinically documented TRT and hormone optimization providers, with detailed public protocol information.

Covers a wide range of therapies including peptides, NAD+, thyroid, and HGH-related protocols beyond basic TRT.

National telehealth availability combined with a physical clinic gives flexibility not available with telehealth-only providers.

Pricing across the full service menu can be complex — initial consult and lab costs are separate from ongoing therapy costs.

HerMD pros and cons

Official site clearly positions HerMD around hrt, wellness labs and broader longevity support.

Telehealth availability makes it easier to compare remote-care convenience against clinic-led alternatives.

Lab or diagnostics integration makes the total care model easier to compare than a headline price alone.

Some final pricing still depends on consult review, location, or service customization.

Notable limitations
