Telos RX vs Winona
Side-by-side HRT telehealth comparison · Verified August 16, 2026
The short answer
Winona takes it: 8.4 vs 6.9, transparency grade B against D, from $54/mo (~$1,161 realistic first year). The edge: $0 consult + product-only pricing + largest HRT-specific review base. Telos RX still makes sense for women who already want GLP-1 or peptides and are looking to add labs-based bioidentical hormones on the same platform, and who accept compounded (not FDA-approved) formulations and a price they cannot see before intake.

The only prices it shows run $49 to $399/mo and they attach to the GLP-1 and peptide lines, not to estradiol or progesterone [Verified August 2026, telosrx.com/pages/for-women] | $0, product-only pricing [Verified July 2026] |

| States | Not confirmed [Reported] | 37 states plus Puerto Rico, counted off Winona's own states page. The 48-state figure this record carried until 2026-08-16 was third-party and is 11 states too generous [Verified August 2026] |

Telos RX first-year math: We do not quote a first-year figure for Telos RX because its HRT-specific price is not published: the for-women page shows only GLP-1 and peptide prices, $49 to $399/mo, and we do not invent a hormone price we could not confirm [Verified August 2026].
Winona first-year math: Winona bills every 28 days, not monthly, so a year holds 13.04 charges rather than 12. Estrogen Body Cream with Progesterone at $89 per cycle x 13.04 = $1,160.56, all-inclusive (consults, follow-ups, shipping included). Cheapest-entry route: estrogen tablets at $54 x 13.04 = $704.16. Every other provider on this roster is measured at 12 charges a year, so counting Winona the same way understated its year by one full charge, which is where the $1,068 this record carried until 2026-08-16 came from [Verified August 2026].
