Hims & Hers vs Ro Body

Verdict

Ro Body is the better choice of the two, winning on regulatory and complaint risk (halfrx score 7.4 against 4.5).

Computed from the stored fields, so it moves when a price does. Nothing here is written by hand or by a model.

Hims & Hers or Ro Body: what can be compared?

Neither publishes an all-in monthly price, so there is no figure to compare on, and any single number either one is quoted at elsewhere was assembled by somebody else. What can be compared is everything below: the commitment, the medication, the record and the terms. Every axis below is computed from stored fields rather than written by hand, so the comparison moves when a price does. Both were last checked on 2026-09-13. Flags recorded here: Hims & Hers — FTC lawsuit, state action, cancellation complaints, FDA warning letter. The published formula scores them 4.5 and 7.4 out of 10, arithmetic over the same stored fields rather than an editor's preference. They also take payment differently: Hims & Hers accepts insurance and Ro Body is cash only, so the figures above answer different questions for an insured reader.

Hims & Hers

Pros

  • +Its iPhone app carries 94,685 ratings on Apple's listing, second only to PlushCare's among the sellers' own care apps — a measure of how many people have used it, not of how well it works.[5]
  • +Offers insurance support alongside the cash program.[3]

Cons

  • −On 29 July 2026 the FTC, joined by Utah and California, sued Hims alleging it enrolled consumers in recurring prescription subscriptions without express informed consent, obscured recurring refill charges, and made cancellation unnecessarily difficult.[6]
  • −The same complaint alleges Hims misrepresented how it handled sensitive health information and shared it with advertising platforms.[6]
  • −Hims never prices the membership and the medication together: $39 for a first month, $149 a month after, and the medication billed separately — so no monthly total is published to hold them to.
  • −Refunds are pro-rated case-by-case rather than by a published rule.[4]

Ro Body

Pros

  • +Partnered with both Novo Nordisk (Wegovy) and Eli Lilly (Zepbound, Mounjaro), so one account can route you across brands as coverage or tolerance changes.[2]
  • +Dedicated prior-authorization team that closes approvals in days, one of only four programs with that capability.[2]
  • +Month-to-month cancellation, confirmed rather than obstructed.[3]
  • +Branded medication only — no compounding exposure.[1]

Cons

  • −Ro prices only the membership — $39 for a first month, then $74 a month prepaid annually or $149 monthly — and bills the medication on top without publishing what it costs.[1]
  • −Listed as cash-only at the program level despite the PA team — the insurance help is for coverage you use, not a discount on Ro's price.[1]
  • −Dose-scaled pricing.[1]

Hims & Hers against Ro Body, answered

Is Hims & Hers or Ro Body better for weight loss?
Neither has a trial figure recorded here that could answer it, so this page does not pick one. What it can compare is commitment and what sits on each one's public record — all from stored figures with the date each was read.
Which is cheaper, Hims & Hers or Ro Body?
Hims & Hers and Ro Body publish no all-in monthly price that could be verified, so this page carries no comparison rather than an estimate — and an unpublished price is itself worth weighing.
Can you switch between Hims & Hers and Ro Body?
Yes. Both offer branded semaglutide, so the medication can stay the same and what changes is the service around it. Ro Body also offers tirzepatide. Both prescribe through their own clinicians, so the one you move to writes its own prescription. Both are month to month.
