Is Hims legit? The short answer
Hims is a real telehealth business, operated by Hims & Hers Health, Inc. according to its own terms, the same company behind Hers. Prescriptions are written by licensed prescribers it does not name. FDA sent it a warning letter dated Sep 9, 2025 (subject: "Unlawful Sale of Unapproved and Misbranded Drugs to United States Consumers Over the Internet"), and no closeout letter is published.

About Hims
Hims is the men's storefront of Hims & Hers Health, Inc., one of the largest US telehealth companies. Its weight-loss program sells FDA-approved brand-name GLP-1s only: the Wegovy pill and Foundayo pill from $149 a month, the Wegovy pen from $199 and Zepbound vials and KwikPens from $299. Each price is the medication alone, and a Weight Loss Membership is billed on top: $39 for the first month, then $149 a month.
Pros and cons
Why people pick it
- FDA-approved brand-name medication only, in pill and weekly injection form
- The membership includes 24/7 messaging with licensed providers, a personal plan and a smart scale
- Cancel the membership or just the medication plan at any time, per its FAQ
Worth knowing
- The $149/mo membership is billed on top of every medication price
- Only starting prices are published, so the cost at higher doses is not on the page
- Not yet available in all 50 states, and the state list is not published
Hims at a glance
Verdict: Best for buyers who want brand-name GLP-1 pills or pens in one app, with provider messaging included. Not for you if you want to pay through insurance.

Hims by plan length
The lowest price Hims publishes on each plan, all in per month, what you pay on day one, and what twelve months at that price come to.
| Plan | Lowest-priced medication | Per month | Due up front | 12 months |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Month to month | Wegovy pill (brand semaglutide) | $298 | $298 | $3,576 |
First year, at the least: $3,576, on the month-to-month plan for Wegovy pill (brand semaglutide). That assumes the entry price every month; most programs charge more as the dose rises, so read it as a floor, not a quote.

Also on the record
Also on the record, and what we could not find
Not published, or not found on Hims’s pages
- Which states it serves: the FAQ says GLP-1s are not yet available in all 50 states but gives no list
- The price at each dose above the starting price
- Which pharmacy fills the prescription
- Whether shipping is charged
- The refund terms, which are not on the weight-loss pages we read
Ask before you pay
- Check that GLP-1s are offered in your state before you pay the $39 first month; the list is not published.
- Ask for the medication price at the dose you expect to reach, not only the starting price, and add the $149 membership.
- Remember that cancelling only the medication leaves the membership billing.

Plan details in the fine print
Lines in Hims’s terms, FAQ or checkout that change what you pay or how long you are committed. None of them is hidden, and all of them are easy to miss.
Every price on the page is the medication alone. The membership is a separate charge, $39 the first month and $149 a month after, so the Wegovy pill at $149 costs $188 in month one and $298 a month from month two.
Their words: 1 quote
“Price includes medication only, if prescribed. An active Hims Weight Loss Membership is required ($39 for the first month, auto-renews at $149/month thereafter).”
Weight loss page · hims.com · read Oct 30, 2026 Prices are starting prices. The FAQ says medication can be billed monthly or up front depending on the plan, and the price depends on the prescribed treatment, so the charge at a higher dose is not on the page.
Their words: 1 quote
“If prescribed, your medication is billed separately (monthly or upfront, based on your plan), and the price of the medication depends on your prescribed treatment, if eligible.”
