The arithmetic
On the figures our desk holds, Willow's $399 a month undercuts Hims & Hers's $548 by $149 a month at the 10 mg/wk maintenance basis — $1,788 across a year. Willow's figure is reported (captured 2026-08-11) and Hims & Hers's is reported (captured 2026-08-11); a status below 'verified' means our independent checkout capture is still pending, so treat the gap as the best current evidence rather than settled fact.
Hims & Hers's tirzepatide ladder runs $548 a month billed monthly. Willow's runs $399 a month billed monthly. On the twelve-month basis Willow's $4,788 beats Hims & Hers's $6,576 by $1,788 — with the winner's figure resting on twelve months at the month-to-month rate with no commitment, a structural difference that matters if you might stop early.
Semaglutide
Only Hims & Hers offers semaglutide ($453 a month billed monthly); Willow does not, so there is no contest to score.
Where the structures genuinely differ
Willow carries no membership fee against Hims & Hers's $149 a month — $1,788 a year of structural cost before any medication ships, which is why this site prices everything all-in. On dose economics, Willow is dose-flat — the price survives titration — while Hims & Hers's pricing can move with the dose, a difference that compounds through a standard escalation schedule and matters most to buyers expecting to reach the higher maintenance doses. On verifiability, Hims & Hers names its dispensing pharmacy — which means the fifteen-minute license-and-records check is possible — while Willow's pharmacy is not disclosed on record, the single structural fact this desk weighs heaviest after the FDA's 2026 letters cited exactly that practice.

What our desk is watching on each
Hims & Hers: The membership is the number that moves the math: a $299 Wegovy pen becomes ~$453/month all-in. Compare against going to NovoCare or LillyDirect directly.
Willow: Reported from a June 15, 2026 comparison table (MenoMellow) — our own capture pending; the flat-at-every-dose structure and 33-state footprint both carry that single-source status until independently confirmed. Pharmacy unnamed on captured materials.
Questions people ask
Is Hims & Hers or Willow cheaper in 2026?
The tirzepatide and semaglutide verdict blocks above give the computed answer at the maintenance basis, with the verification status of each figure; the short version is that whichever program's all-in monthly number is lower on this page is cheaper on the evidence we hold today, and both rows carry capture dates so you can judge freshness.
What does Hims & Hers vs Willow miss that checkout will show?
Taxes, state availability, current promotions, and any dose surcharge introduced after our capture date. Screenshot the order summary before paying — that capture, not any comparison page, is your contract.
Why do you compare at the maintenance dose instead of the starting dose?
Because starter pricing lasts one or two months and maintenance pricing lasts the rest of the year; comparing starts against maintenances is the single most common way GLP-1 comparisons mislead.
What do Hims & Hers and Willow cost over a full year of tirzepatide?
On the plans our database holds, a year of tirzepatide runs $6,576 at Hims & Hers and $4,788 at Willow — computed from each program's best published twelve-month route, with promotional figures labeled in the sections above and every number carrying its capture date.
