Maximus vs Nurx
Maximus: A men's hormone-health platform with a flat, published hair menu: three single orals, three compounded gels and three combinations, every price on one page and the doctor included.
Nurx: A women's telehealth service whose hair offer is a compounded topical. It is one of the few here that states both numbers plainly: the medication is cheap, the consultation is not.

| Watch out for | Every price is quoted per month but billed as a 90-day supply, so the cheapest line is $24.99/mo only as a $75 charge up front. Dutasteride is prescribed off-label for hair loss, and the gels are compounded, so neither is FDA-approved in that form. | The $80 initial consultation is the highest upfront fee in this index - four times Dr. B's $19 and more than three times Lemonaid's $25. At $20 a month for the medication, the consultation alone is the first four months. Women only; no finasteride, no dutasteride, no oral option. |
The black tag marks the lower price where both providers publish one. Shaded prices are still pending a checkout check. Full detail: Maximus · Nurx.
