Medications

ethinyl estradiolnorethindrone acetatelevonorgestreldoxycyclineeflornithineboric acid

Pros

✓This is not a compounded-medication business. Wisp prescribes FDA-approved generics, so you get medicines that have been reviewed for safety, efficacy and quality - a genuine difference from most telehealth brands we cover
✓Prices are low and published: most generic birth control pills from $15/month, the patch from $12, the vaginal ring from $22, levonorgestrel (generic Plan B) from $12.50, DoxyPEP from $22 and boric acid suppositories at $27 (checked July 28, 2026)
✓The provider consult fee is included in the product price rather than charged separately
✓You can have prescriptions sent to a local pharmacy for same-day pickup and apply your insurance there, or take free delivery to all 50 states. Very few telehealth brands let you use insurance at all
✓Wisp also issues a GoodRx discount card for lower out-of-pocket pharmacy costs, which works against its own delivery revenue
✓The formulary page lists the brand-name equivalent for every generic - Cyred EQ alongside Desogen, Apri and Reclipsen, for instance - so you can verify what you are getting
✓Roughly 11,000 Trustpilot reviews with 99% of negative ones answered, usually within a day
✓Broad, genuinely useful catalogue: BV, yeast infection, UTI, herpes, chlamydia, gonorrhea, trichomoniasis, at-home STI testing, birth control, emergency contraception, menopause, PCOS, fertility and migraine
✓DoxyPEP is offered for post-exposure bacterial STI prevention, which reflects current CDC guidance rather than a novelty product
✓Menopause care is a flat $99 online consult covering estrogen and progesterone hormone replacement, with the price stated up front
✓FSA and HSA accepted across most of the range, and orders are processed within 24 hours including weekends

Cons

✗A 4.0 Trustpilot average is the lowest of the well-reviewed brands we cover. Across 11,000 reviews that reflects a real spread of experiences rather than a small-sample fluke
✗Every price is a 'starting at' figure, so the final cost depends on the specific product and supply length you are prescribed
✗The claim that levonorgestrel is '60% cheaper at Wisp than when buying PLAN B at the pharmacy' is not sourced to any price survey or date
✗'Our Doors Are Always Open' sits alongside stated support hours of 9:30am-6:30pm EST Monday to Friday, so the messaging oversells availability
✗Boric acid suppositories are sold for vaginal health but are not FDA-approved for that use, and the evidence base is thinner than for the prescription products alongside them
✗The '1.8 million people' figure is the company's own with no independent verification
✗Hormonal contraception is not suitable for everyone - smokers over 35 and people with a history of blood clots, stroke, certain migraines with aura or oestrogen-sensitive cancers need a clinician's assessment before starting
✗Because prescriptions can be routed to a retail pharmacy, your final cost there may differ from the price shown on the Wisp site

Medications

testosterone cypionatecompounded testosterone creamclomiphene citratethyroid medicationsildenafiltadalafil

Pros

✓Prices are published per treatment option rather than hidden behind an intake: Triclozene oral from $95/mo, injectable testosterone cypionate from $120/mo, topical testosterone cream from $132/mo (checked July 28, 2026)
✓BBB Accredited with an A+ rating and 7 years in business, plus a real Charlotte, NC street address and a staffed phone line at (833) 625-3392
✓Roughly 6,000 Trustpilot reviews averaging 4.5 - a far larger evidence base than the handful of reviews most compounded-medication brands have
✓Requires that you have had an in-person physical with vitals taken in the past 3 years before it will prescribe. This rules out some customers, and it is a genuine safety gate that most online hormone clinics skip
✓States plainly that prescription testosterone is a Schedule III controlled substance requiring medical monitoring, rather than glossing over it
✓ED medications are FDA-approved generics - sildenafil and tadalafil - at $65/month with a $35 first month, not compounded formulations
✓No contract, cancel anytime, and treatment costs are FSA/HSA eligible
✓The $99/month membership covers unlimited e-visits and unlimited messaging with a dedicated provider, so follow-up questions do not trigger per-visit fees
✓Publishes its excluded states openly instead of letting you discover the restriction at checkout

Cons

✗The headline 'as low as $95 a month' is roughly half the real cost. A $99/month Medical Membership is mandatory for treatment, so the true entry price is about $194/month, plus a one-time $99 online medical consultation and shipping on top. The membership requirement is disclosed, but only in fine print beneath the plan cards
✗The cheapest 'TRT solution' at $95/month is not testosterone. Triclozene is a proprietary compounded blend of clomiphene citrate and thyroid ingredients meant to stimulate your own production. Clomiphene is FDA-approved for ovulation induction in women; prescribing it to men is off-label
✗Thyroid medication is bundled into the standard injectable and topical packages by default, described as helping 'with testosterone effectiveness'. Giving thyroid hormone to men without documented hypothyroidism is not supported by Endocrine Society guidance and is worth questioning your provider about directly
✗The testosterone cream is explicitly a compounded blend of bioidentical testosterone powder in a Lipoderm base. Compounded preparations are not FDA-approved, and the product page does not mention the FDA at all
✗The pricing page claims the cream is '20x more powerful than commercial cream' with no citation, dosing comparison or study attached
✗Advertised prices are 60-day supplies billed bi-monthly, so the monthly figures are derived rather than what actually leaves your account
✗Not available in Alaska, Arkansas, Connecticut, Hawaii, Idaho, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Hampshire or Rhode Island
✗The 'over 100,000 members' figure is the company's own and we found no independent verification of it
✗Testosterone therapy carries real risks - it suppresses fertility, can raise red blood cell counts, and is not appropriate for men with prostate or breast cancer or those trying to conceive
