Maximus vs SHED

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.
SHED: A GLP-1 weight-loss service that added hair treatment in 2025. Four compounded products, men's and women's, each with its price on its own page - unusual for a brand whose main business is somewhere else.

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.	Hair is a sideline here: the site is built around GLP-1 weight loss and every hair page carries weight-loss promotions. Every price is 'starting at', and the 120-day money-back guarantee shouted on the home page covers the weight-loss programme, not the hair products.
