Gaya Wellness vs InstaRX
The verdict
Gaya Wellness takes it — 63.9/100 to 63.8/100, but only just.
Gaya Wellness grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Gaya Wellness is a virtual, OB/GYN-led telehealth practice focused on women 40+ for menopause, hormone replacement, and weight loss. InstaRX is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.

Graded #248 · C
Strengths
- OB/GYN-led care designed for women 40+ and menopause overlap
- Includes a 50+ biomarker lab panel and weekly physician check-ins
- HSA/FSA eligible with a GLP-1 plus bioidentical HRT bundle option
- Transparent tiered pricing published online
Where it loses points
- Weight loss is one vertical alongside menopause and hormone care
- Medication-included tiers ($349+/mo) are pricier than many compounders
- Available in only five states (FL, NC, VA, IN, TN)
Graded #250 · C
Strengths
- Available in all 50 states plus DC
- Manage GLP-1, anti-aging peptides, and sexual-health medications on one account
- Offers both compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide
- Independent provider group (Dr Telx) named in the Terms of Service
Where it loses points
- No per-dose or monthly pricing published — only a "$199 to get started" hook; you can't compare costs before intake
- No LegitScript, HIPAA, or NABP accreditation shown on public pages
- Compounding pharmacy not named — only "U.S. pharmacies"
- Terms of Service reads like generic boilerplate, including copy-paste language about women's health issues — suggests low template hygiene
- Delaware governing law for disputes despite a California corporate address
