Direct answer

This tool calculates from the figures you enter and publishes its formula and assumptions below the result. It stores nothing, sends nothing, and collects no health information. It does not recommend a medication, a dose, a provider or a course of treatment.

Answer last reviewed: not yet reviewed
What you are charged

Some providers charge more at higher doses. Enter the surcharge at the dose you expect to be on.

Where your money goes, from the figures you entered
Medication—Membership—Shipping—Dose surcharge—Consultation—Labs—Structure only. No widths are proportional to anything, because nothing is captured.

Assumptions behind this calculation
Recurring costsMedication, membership, shipping and dose surcharge are multiplied by the number of months.
One-off costsConsultation and laboratory fees are added once. If your provider bills them repeatedly, enter them as a monthly cost instead.
Dose escalationNot assumed. Enter the surcharge for the dose you expect to reach.
InsuranceNot modelled. This is a self-pay calculation.
RoundingDisplayed to the nearest dollar; the calculation is not rounded.

The six charges that sit outside a headline price

Membership or programme fee. Sometimes monthly, sometimes annual. In our dataset these run from $19.99 to $149 a month. At the top of that range the membership can equal or exceed the medication price.

Shipping. Often free above a plan threshold and charged below it.

Initial consultation. Sometimes waived on enrolment, sometimes billed separately at over $100, and sometimes charged again if you lapse and return.

Laboratory work. Required by some programmes, optional in others, and billed variously to you or to insurance. This is the field we most often cannot establish from a published page.

Dose surcharge. The largest and least visible. Brand products move $150 between starter and top tier; several compounded programmes escalate too.

Cancellation and restocking terms. Not a monthly cost, but a real one if you stop early on a prepaid plan.

The one question that surfaces all of it

Ask, in writing: what is the total I will pay over twelve months if I titrate to a maintenance dose, including every required fee? A provider who answers in one sentence is being straight with you. A provider who redirects to the monthly figure has told you something too.

When quoting a figure, include the capture date shown beside it rather than the date you read this page. A price without its capture date is not a usable citation.
