Medications

bioidentical estradiolprogesteroneestriolDHEAsildenafilminoxidil

Pros

✓The full price list is published openly, with no intake required to see it: progesterone capsules from $39/mo, estrogen tablets from $54/mo, estrogen body cream (with progesterone) from $89/mo, vaginal estrogen cream from $89/mo and the estrogen patch from $149/mo (checked July 28, 2026)
✓Multiple delivery routes are offered - patch, body cream, vaginal cream, tablet and capsule - so treatment can be matched to preference rather than to whatever the company happens to stock
✓Winona owns its own 503A compounding pharmacies rather than outsourcing to a partner, which gives it direct control over formulation and consistency
✓Its pharmacy page explains the 503A/503B distinction correctly and states that 503A pharmacies are regulated by State Boards of Pharmacy, not the FDA - an accurate description that competitors routinely overstate
✓Roughly 8,000 Trustpilot reviews at 4.6, with 99% of negative reviews answered and a typical reply time under 24 hours
✓The rating advertised on site matches the rating on the public Trustpilot profile
✓The initial visit is free, so you can be assessed before paying for treatment
✓Editorial content carries numbered citations rather than unsourced assertions, and the site runs a public subreddit alongside a help centre and published phone number
✓HSA/FSA eligible, with a dedicated page explaining eligibility
✓Adjacent products are priced transparently too - DHEA from $27 per 3-month supply, sildenafil arousal cream at $79 per order, minoxidil hair serum at $150 per 3-month supply

Cons

✗Everything Winona dispenses is compounded in its own 503A pharmacies, which means it is not FDA-approved and has not been evaluated by the FDA for safety, efficacy or quality. The site explains 503A status clearly but does not foreground the 'not FDA-approved' consequence as plainly
✗Pharmaceutical products cannot be returned, per the terms - so once a prescription ships, you own it
✗The terms carry a mandatory arbitration clause on an individual basis with a class-action waiver, set out in capitals at the top of the document
✗Every headline price is a 'from' figure, so the actual monthly cost depends on the dose your clinician prescribes and is not knowable before the consultation
✗The hormone therapy explainer describes HRT as 'scientifically proven to be the safest, most effective treatment' for menopause symptoms. It is cited, but that is a strong framing for a therapy whose risk profile still depends heavily on age, time since menopause and personal history
✗Trustpilot notes Winona invites customers to review, which tends to lift scores relative to organic-only profiles, and that it may use AI-assisted replies
✗Systemic estrogen is not appropriate for everyone - women with a history of breast or endometrial cancer, unexplained vaginal bleeding, blood clots, stroke or liver disease should not start it without specialist input
✗Compounded hormone therapy in general lacks the long-term outcome data that exists for FDA-approved products, so the evidence cited for HRT as a class does not transfer automatically to these specific preparations

Medications

semaglutidetirzepatide

Pros

✓Pricing is at least indicated before signup - "as low as $179/mo" - and the plan is described as covering medication, care and shipping together
✓Separate semaglutide and tirzepatide intake paths, so you know which molecule you are applying for
✓Available to eligible patients in all 50 US states and Washington DC, subject to provider review and state regulations
✓The compounded-medication disclaimer is present and correctly worded: compounded medications are prepared by licensed pharmacies and are not FDA-approved finished drug products
✓It states clearly that Aspen Health is a technology platform and not a healthcare provider, and that clinical decisions are made solely by independent licensed providers
✓A published phone number, (307) 301-5303, and a named legal entity, Aspen Health Systems LLC
✓A refund policy, telehealth consent, HIPAA notice and privacy policy are all published and linked from the footer
✓It is honest that treatment is not guaranteed: "Treatment is only provided when a licensed provider determines it is medically appropriate"
✓A LegitScript verification link is present in the footer

Cons

✗The medication is compounded and therefore not FDA-approved or reviewed for safety, effectiveness or quality
✗"As low as $179/mo" is the floor, and no dose-by-dose price ladder is published, so what you actually pay only becomes clear inside the intake
✗The quality claims are vague to the point of being uninformative: "Partner pharmacies operate under applicable licensing and quality control requirements" says nothing a non-compliant pharmacy could not also say
✗No pharmacy is named
✗Shipping timelines are explicitly not committed to - "Shipping timelines may vary by treatment, pharmacy, and prescription status"
✗The company address is a suite address in Sheridan, Wyoming, which is a common corporate-registration location rather than a clinical or pharmacy facility
✗The Aspen+ premium tier (overnight shipping, dedicated concierge) is marketed as "Coming Soon" rather than being available
✗No insurance billing and no HSA/FSA information
✗Testimonials are anonymous and unattributed
