Hidden fees to watch for

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

DiscountedLabs

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

Maximus

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.

DiscountedLabs pros and cons

Official site clearly positions DiscountedLabs around 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.

Maximus pros and cons

Competitive monthly pricing makes physician-guided TRT accessible to a broader segment of men than traditional clinic models.

Streamlined online enrollment and lab integration reduce the friction of starting a testosterone optimization program.

Focuses specifically on testosterone, which gives the clinical model more depth than generalist men health platforms.

Narrower service menu compared to full-spectrum longevity platforms — no peptides, IV therapy, or women health coverage.
