Steady State Health is a women's-health practice in Oregon and Washington led by Josie Cowburn, DNP, FNP-C, a nurse practitioner. Its Steady Metabolic GLP-1 program prescribes semaglutide or tirzepatide inside a midlife metabolic and hormone plan for perimenopause and menopause. Membership is $149 a month; medication is billed separately through its pharmacy from $110 a month, and the site estimates about $259 a month all-in, plus a one-time $190 lab panel if you bring no recent labs.
Is Steady State Health legit?
Yes. Steady State Health is a real, operating US company, and we found no FDA warning letters issued to it. We rate it 4.4/10 overall, across six areas from price to trust and safety. Legitimate is not the same as right for you, though: that part is a decision for you and a licensed clinician.
Is there a Steady State Health promo or coupon code?
We know of no promo or coupon code for Steady State Health. Coupon sites advertising "Steady State Health discount codes" are not a source we can vouch for, and any genuine offer shows at checkout without a code.

How Steady State Health scores
Six columns, each one computed from something Steady State Health has published rather than from an opinion we formed: what it charges, which molecules it will dispense, what its record shows, and what the monthly figure actually buys. Where a seller keeps something back, such as its price or its pharmacy, the score reflects it. Every seller we review goes through the same six columns.
Value25%
3.0/10There is no monthly price to compare, so Value is capped rather than scored against other sellers.
Effectiveness25%
5.0/10No medication list or price is available to score, so this is held at the midpoint. It is not a judgment on the drugs themselves.
User Experience15%
5.0/10Where this seller first shows a price is not known, so sign-up is held at the midpoint.
Trust & Safety15%
6.0/10No pharmacy is named for its prescriptions. There is no confirmed price before the medical intake. It lists the states it serves.
Accessibility10%
2.3/10Serves 2 of 50 states.
Support10%
5.0/10No published price, so what a price would include cannot be assessed. Held at the midpoint.
A seller that shows no price until after the medical intake loses points on User Experience and Trust & Safety, and its review says so. How we score →

Medications Steady State Health lists
Steady State Health lists semaglutide and tirzepatide. Each one has its own guide: how it works, the dosing schedule, the side effects that show up in practice, and what the trials measured.
In its favor
- The monthly price includes clinician visits
- We found no FDA warning letters issued to Steady State Health
Against it
- Not included in the monthly price: medication, lab work
- Serves only 2 states, so check that yours is one of them
- Ask which pharmacy fills the prescription before you pay, so you can check its license
What Steady State Health charges
There is no standard monthly price to quote for Steady State Health, so you cannot compare it with other sellers until you have been through an intake and received a quote. When you get one, ask for the ongoing monthly figure and what it includes, not the first-month rate and not a program total divided by its length. Steady State Health is not alone in this: about a fifth of GLP-1 sellers publish no price at all.
What Steady State Health dispenses
Steady State Health prescribes semaglutide (approved as Wegovy and Ozempic) and tirzepatide (approved as Zepbound and Mounjaro). Between them these are the two molecules with the largest published weight-loss trial programs behind them.
Safety and disclosure
Steady State Health tells you the 2 states it serves. We found no FDA warning letters issued to Steady State Health. The FDA's warning signs for online medicine sellers are a quick check to run on any seller before you pay. How we weigh oversight, disclosure and price is set out in our scoring methodology.
Who should look elsewhere
- You want to compare prices before spending time on an intake. There is no standard monthly price to compare.
- You need insurance to cover the cost. Check whether Steady State Health bills your plan before you start.
Our read
Whether Steady State Health is priced well is impossible to judge before an intake, because there is no standard price to compare. That does not rule it out, and plenty of legitimate sellers quote after intake, but it puts the comparison after you have spent the time, which is the wrong order for you as the buyer. WellMedRx is the nearest comparison we review, and worth reading alongside this.
The Bottom Line
Steady State Health scores highest on disclosure and lowest on availability, and it serves 2 states.
Before you pay Steady State Health
Check today's price, then start the intake.
Where Steady State Health is the wrong choice
No seller suits every reader, and pretending otherwise is the easiest way to sell one. On these two counts, another seller does better.
- If you want a human checking in, not just a prescription, consider Eden.
- If your state is outside the area this one covers, consider Embody.
If none of these fits, our guide to alternatives to Steady State Health sets more sellers in the same category beside Steady State Health on price, states and what the price includes.
