Read our full Hers review →About Nucore Health
You will not see a price at Nucore Health until the intake quiz is done. The company is owned by physicians, carries LegitScript certification, and reaches all 50 states. Its clinical engine is OpenLoop Health: choose a treatment, then work through a secure medical intake. A licensed provider judges eligibility before anything is written. Compounded GLP-1, semaglutide and tirzepatide, forms the core, a microdose tirzepatide protocol included, with NAD+, sermorelin and MIC B12 beside them. The pitch leans longevity and performance rather than weight loss by itself.

Hers
What we like
- Shows its price before the medical questionnaire, so you can compare it without handing over health information
- The monthly price includes the medication
- Serves all 50 states
Watch-outs
- Not included in the monthly price: clinician visits, coaching
- Ask which pharmacy fills the prescription before you pay, so you can check its license
- The FDA has issued Hers a warning letter. Read what it alleges: a letter flags a problem but does not by itself rule a seller out
- Its semaglutide is compounded rather than FDA-approved, so it has not been reviewed by the agency for safety, effectiveness or manufacturing quality
