Woodwork, answered
Is Woodwork legit?
Woodwork is a real, operating GLP-1 telehealth program, but we don't find it on the LegitScript registry, so it carries less third-party verification than the certified providers on our board. It dispenses compounded medication, which isn't FDA-approved. Vet the prescriber and pharmacy before you commit.
How much does Woodwork cost?
Woodwork lists compounded semaglutide from $127/mo (starting dose, compounded) and tirzepatide from $199/mo (starting dose, compounded) — below our category median of $179/mo. These are the provider's public figures at our last review (June 2026); confirm on their site, since some teaser tiers step up after month one.
Does Woodwork ship to my state?
Woodwork operates in a limited set of states (Coverage not published). If yours isn't on that list, you'll need a nationwide provider instead.
Woodwork vs CoreAge Rx — which is better?
Both are on our board. Woodwork scores 61/100; CoreAge Rx leads our default ranking at 91/100 for its flat nationwide pricing on both molecules and easy cancellation. Woodwork can still win for you if its strengths match your priorities — best for: People who want low-cost compounded GLP-1 (oral or injectable) on an LGBTQ-focused men's health platform. Run the quiz to see which comes out ahead for you.
