The verdict

Joi + Blokes grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Joi + Blokes is a hormone-first telehealth platform with parallel programs for women (Joi) and men (Blokes), now expanded to compounded GLP-1s for weight loss.

Graded #203 · C
Strengths
- Separate programs for women (Joi) and men (Blokes) — most GLP-1 telehealth is gender-agnostic
- Trustpilot 4.6/5 from 1,254+ reviews — among the strongest review signals in the category
- Monthly price includes medication, dosing support, clinician consults, and health coaching
- Integrated hormone + GLP-1 programs help patients on testosterone or perimenopausal protocols
- First-month discount ($99 sema / $149 tirz) lowers the barrier to trying GLP-1s
Where it loses points
- Billed quarterly — a 3-month commitment up front, not month-to-month
- Different pricing in NY and NJ — verify your state's cost before committing
- Per-state availability isn't listed; it's zip-code gated behind signup
- Months 2+ cost more ($199 sema / $299 tirz) than the headline intro price
- No FDA-approved Wegovy — compounded only on the GLP-1 side; Zepbound carries a separate visit fee
Graded #332 · C
Strengths
- LegitScript-certified with publicly displayed ID (44206977)
- Two named 503A compounding-pharmacy partners (Manifest Pharmacy SC + RX Compounding Store FL) — transparency above category baseline
- Lower advertised semaglutide starting price ($190) than most multi-product peer platforms
- Multi-product offering (GLP-1s + NAD+ + sermorelin + generic ED + birth control) for single-platform users
- 24-hour US board-certified physician response window
Where it loses points
- Per-dose pricing tiers not transparently published on product pages — only 'starting from' prices visible
- No explicit state-coverage list disclosed; FAQ confirms restrictions exist 'based on state' without enumeration
- Medical director not named publicly
- No published consultation fee disclosure — unclear whether physician visit is included in medication price
- All sales final per FAQ ('Federal and State law do not allow medication returns')
