MangoRx vs Maximus
Side-by-side TRT telehealth comparison · Verified August 16, 2026
The short answer
MangoRx takes it: 7.0 vs 6.5, transparency grade C against D, from $99/mo (~$1,288 realistic first year). The edge: a $99/mo injectable TRT that publishes its lab prices to the dollar instead of hiding them, on a broad men's-health platform rather than a TRT specialist. Maximus still makes sense for men specifically seeking enclomiphene or oral-TRT protocols who intend to stay the full 6 or 12 months, understand that cancelling early does not stop the bill, and accept documented fulfillment risk.

MangoRx first-year math: Injectable TRT at $99/mo x 12 = $1,188 for visits, consultations and medication, plus the required baseline panel. Using the Tasso+ kit MangoRx names as preferred, $100, year one is $1,288; on the $75 SpotDX kit it is $1,263. Bring qualifying bloodwork from the last 30 days and the kit comes off. The 'labs included' framing this record carried until 2026-08-16 came from the company's launch release and is contradicted by MangoRx's own FAQ [Verified August 2026].
Maximus first-year math: $99.99 at-home lab + enclomiphene on the 12-month plan, first month at the advertised 50% off ($49.99) and eleven at $99.99, is $1,249.87. Without the intro discount the same year is $1,299.87. The same twelve months bought one at a time cost $99.99 + $199.99 × 12 = $2,499.87, so the commitment saves half, and cancelling inside it still leaves every remaining month owing [Verified August 2026].
Choose MangoRx if
Men in one of its 14 TRT states who want a flat $99/mo injectable program with visits and medication included, who already have recent bloodwork or will pay $75 to $100 for a kit, and who are fine using a broad men's-health platform rather than a dedicated TRT specialist.

The honest part
MangoRx
- TRT is one line on a broad men's-health platform (GLP-1, ED, hair), not a specialty [Verified July 2026]
- Independent review base is tiny (~12) and platform-wide, not TRT-specific [Reported]
- The 42-state figure MangoRx advertises covers the platform. The Testosterone Treatment itself is 14 states [Verified August 2026]
- Some products (Mojo enclomiphene, GLP-1) are compounded and therefore NOT FDA-approved; status not clearly disclosed [Reported]
- No clinicians named [Reported]
Maximus
- BBB F; rubric caps any BBB-F provider at 7.0 [Reported]
- Unfulfilled-prescription complaint basis for the F [Reported]
- Cancelling mid-term still owes every remaining month of the 6-month or 12-month commitment, per Maximus's own terms. On a provider whose BBB F is for not delivering prescriptions, that combination is the red flag, not either half [Verified August 2026]
- Plans auto-renew for a full further term at the then-current rate unless cancelled before the renewal date [Verified August 2026, terms]
- Anchor pricing: the advertised monthly is the longest tier, and one month costs $199.99 or $249.99 [Verified August 2026]
