Ascend Vitality vs yourEra
The verdict
yourEra takes it — 83.8/100 to 60.9/100.
yourEra grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. A both-molecule compounded program that publishes its prices up front — semaglutide $199/mo, tirzepatide $299/mo — across a 50-state clinician network, with an optional coaching-plus-labs membership and a NAD+/microdosing menu on the side.
We may earn a commission if you start care through some of these links, at no extra cost to you. It never moves the WeighScore, which is the weighted average of the six factors shown for every provider, and what we write about a provider is the same either way. See our disclosure.

Graded #307 · C
Strengths
- Both injectable and needle-free oral tablet forms of semaglutide and tirzepatide
- LegitScript certified
- Transparent cash-pay pricing with cancel-anytime subscription
- Legal entity and address publicly disclosed (Ascend Vitality LLC, Sheridan, WY)
Where it loses points
- All medications are compounded — FDA does not review compounded drugs for safety/effectiveness
- No named compounding pharmacy partner disclosed
- No public state-by-state availability list (homepage cites exclusions: LA, MS, KS, NM, WV)
- Per-dose/titration pricing not published; only 'starting at' prices shown
Graded #13 · B
Strengths
- Transparent, publicly listed pricing — many compounded competitors hide price behind a quiz
- Both semaglutide and tirzepatide, not a single-drug menu, plus NAD+ and microdosing lines
- Markets a 50-state licensed-clinician network; no insurance required, HSA/FSA accepted
- Optional yourEra Optimum membership adds 1:1 coaching, a nutritionist, at-home lab draws and wearables
Where it loses points
- Compounded semaglutide/tirzepatide are not FDA-approved (not the same as Wegovy/Ozempic/Zepbound)
- Mid-market pricing ($199 sema / $299 tirz) — above the cheapest compounders
- No brand-name lane and no oral route — weekly injectable only
- Thin independent footprint; the 50-state and efficacy claims are self-reported
