Hims vs Hone Health Testosterone (2026): What Each Really Prescribes and Costs

Hims vs Hone Health testosterone comes down to one fact: of these two, only Hone currently offers testosterone. Hims sells enclomiphene-based pills, with a $990 ten-month prepay for its lowest rate. Hone fits readers seeking a TRT evaluation in a served state. Fertility plans, insurance, and FDA-approved medication needs can change the best care route. ^{1 6}

Educational information, not medical advice. This is public-source editorial research. It has not been reviewed by a clinician. If you have chest pain, trouble breathing, or sudden severe symptoms, get emergency care.

Choose Hone if: a clinician finds testosterone appropriate, you want a live physician video visit and monthly membership billing, and its plan serves your state. Its advertised injection, cream and troche options are compounded, not FDA-approved. ^{6 9 17}

Choose Hims if: a clinician recommends enclomiphene, you're fine with mostly message-based care, and you'll commit to, and prepay, 10 months for its lowest advertised rate. ^{1 3}

Not for you yet if: you're trying to conceive soon, your low result came from one test, or you have a history of prostate or breast cancer, a high red-blood-cell count, untreated severe sleep apnea, or a recent heart attack or stroke. Those situations need a proper evaluation or specialist-led discussion before a medication subscription. ^{20 21 42}

Hims vs Hone Health testosterone: what differs at a glance?

Hims sells an enclomiphene pill plan, with its lowest rate tied to a ten-month prepay. Hone runs a monthly, physician-led program that can prescribe testosterone or non-testosterone treatment. They are not two prices for the same product. ^{1 6}

Provider-stated facts from each company's own pages, checked October 14, 2026; this is not an independent test of delivered care. Trustpilot scores cover each business, not testosterone alone. Totals and comparisons are our calculations. Sources are listed at the end. ^{1 3 4 6 7 9 10 11 12 15 17 19 30 31}

Hims (hims.com, the men's brand of Hims & Hers Health, Inc.) sells a compounded enclomiphene pill that can prompt your body to make more of its own testosterone. Its lowest advertised rate is $99 a month, but only if you prepay $990 for 10 months. Hone's Plus testosterone path starts with a $45 at-home test, then $135 a month plus medication and any required confirmation-test charge. ^{1 3 6}

That's the headline. But here's the part that surprised us: using the advertised starting prices, Hims costs $731–$825 less over 10 months of enclomiphene-based care. The difference depends on whether Hims credits its $94 kit. These are not identical formulations or guaranteed personal quotes. We'll show the trade-off, along with who should pick which one, and who should pick neither. ^{3 4 6}

What changes the answer:

• Trying to have a baby in the next year? Start with a urologist or reproductive urologist, not either subscription.
• Live in one of the 14 states or D.C. where Hone has no men's testosterone plan? Skip to If Hone doesn't serve your state.
• Only had one low test? Pick a provider for a proper evaluation, not a medication commitment. A single number isn't a diagnosis. ^{20 21}

TRT Provider Guide is the independent decision resource for testosterone replacement therapy — helping U.S. adults understand how low testosterone is evaluated, compare online and local care models and providers, and choose the next step that fits their health needs, fertility plans, budget, state, and care preferences, with every material claim verified and dated.

Scope: U.S. adult men evaluating testosterone deficiency. This is not a guide to gender-affirming care, adolescent care, or nonmedical performance use.

The right TRT provider is not the same for every person — it depends on whether low testosterone has been properly evaluated, your symptoms and health history, your fertility plans, your state, your insurance or cash-pay preference, your treatment-format preference, your budget, and whether online or in-person care is the better starting point. Some situations belong with primary care, urology, endocrinology, reproductive urology, or urgent or emergency care when the symptoms warrant it. Because a general answer cannot resolve those for you, use TRT Provider Guide's Find My TRT Path tool to map your situation to the right care route and the questions to ask before you pay. It's educational and non-diagnostic. It doesn't determine medical eligibility or promise a prescription.

Does Hims prescribe testosterone, or just enclomiphene?

Not testosterone, not yet. On October 14, 2026, Hims' testosterone page still lists injectable testosterone cypionate and oral Kyzatrex as "Coming in 2026," and its FAQ says Hims doesn't offer testosterone injections. What Hims advertises now is Testosterone Rx, a compounded enclomiphene pill. ¹

This is the single biggest source of confusion in this comparison, so let's clear it up.

What Hims actually sells. Hims' low-T line is called Testosterone Rx (and Testosterone Rx+). The active drug is enclomiphene. One version adds tadalafil, the ingredient in Cialis, for erections. The current "Rx+" versions also add zinc, vitamins B6 and B12, and L-arginine. Every version is a daily pill. None of them contains testosterone. ^{1 2}

What enclomiphene does, in plain words. Your pituitary gland, a small gland at the base of the brain, sends a signal called luteinizing hormone (LH) that tells your testicles to make testosterone. Enclomiphene blocks part of estrogen's "slow down" signal, so LH can rise. If your testicles can still respond, your own testosterone may rise. If they cannot respond well, as in primary hypogonadism, raising that signal may not solve the problem. ^{20 23 46}

What it isn't. It isn't testosterone replacement therapy. It isn't FDA-approved; Hims says so on its own page. And it isn't "natural TRT," whatever ads imply. It's a different medicine with a different job. ^{22 46}

Why an announcement can be confusing. Hims announced Kyzatrex, an FDA-approved oral testosterone, back in September 2025, with a 2026 launch. But the storefront still says "Coming in 2026*," and the asterisk says the launch "may be subject to change." With about 11 weeks left in the year, we wouldn't plan your care around a product the storefront does not yet offer. ^{1 29 52}

What Hone sells. Hone's physicians can prescribe testosterone cypionate injections, testosterone cream, and testosterone troches (tablets that dissolve in your mouth). Hone also offers enclomiphene and clomiphene, plus anastrozole, a drug that lowers estrogen. Those alternatives and add-ons are not testosterone replacement therapy. Anastrozole is FDA-approved for certain breast cancers in postmenopausal women; using it in male hormone care is off-label. ⁵¹ One thing to know up front: the testosterone products advertised here are compounded. Hone's own sales page identifies its cypionate as compounded and not FDA-approved. More on what that means below. ^{6 7 16 17}

Which should you choose: Hims or Hone Health?

Choose by the treatment a clinician recommends and how you want to pay, not by the advertised monthly price. If you need a currently offered testosterone option, the answer between these two is Hone; if enclomiphene is appropriate and you can prepay 10 months, Hims has the lower starting-price model. If you're trying to conceive soon, start with a fertility specialist. ^{1 3 6 21}

How much does Hims cost vs Hone Health, really?

Hims' cheapest advertised enclomiphene plan is $990 for 10 months, paid up front, with a $94 kit credit that needs confirmation. Hone Plus costs $135 a month plus medication; its testosterone startup fees are $225–$260 before medication under the plan-specific test prices. A complete personal first-year bill needs the prescription, fill sizes, and dated renewal charges. ^{1 3 4 6 10}

Advertised prices can hide the real bill in different ways at each company. At Hims, the low monthly rate comes with a prepay. At Hone, membership and medication are separate. Here's the money laid out so you can see what is priced, what is conditional, and what still needs a written quote.

The real-cost table

Prices checked October 14, 2026. These are calculations from published inputs, not checkout-tested bills. Hone's plan pages say routine follow-up labs, visits and standard shipping are included; medication prices can vary. Taxes if charged, extra workups, outside-pharmacy charges and any required in-person care are not priced here. ^{1 3 4 6 7 10 34}

Three conflicting confirmation-test statements matter. Hone lists Plus at-lab confirmation at $45 on its plan page and $50 on its lab schedule; both list $80 at home. A separate retesting FAQ says clinically necessary retesting or confirmation is free. We have not treated that broad statement as a guaranteed waiver: ask which applies to your enrollment. If the fee is waived, subtract it from the matching model above. ^{6 10 31}

Twelve payment months are not automatically your first 365 days of cash charges. Hone describes membership billing as approximately every 30 days, and medication is charged per fill. Early refills, multiple-month fills, or another membership renewal inside 365 days can change cash paid. Ask for actual charge dates, not just twelve times a monthly rate. ^{12 33}

Hims' whole-term renewal examples: if the same ten-month offer renews in full at $990, two terms total $1,980–$2,074, including any uncredited initial kit fee, for 20 advertised months. If Hims allows a switch from ten months to a $597 three-month term, the total is $1,587–$1,681 for 13 advertised months. Neither renewal price nor switching permission was confirmed. These examples explain the cash-flow issue; they are not offers. ^{1 3 4 55}

Why Hone's "$28" needs a careful look

Hone's help center prices testosterone cypionate at "starts at $28/vial." Its sales page uses a monthly starting-price label. Those aren't the same thing. How long a vial lasts depends on your prescription and the pharmacy's product and use-by instructions. Twelve $28 vials would add $336 to the service/test totals: $2,046–$2,081 on Plus or $2,286 on Premium. That is an arithmetic example, not a typical prescription or a personal quote. Ask Hone for the quantity, total fill charge, and covered days in writing. ^{6 7 17}

What Hone's $135 actually pays for

Hone publishes a rare breakdown. It calls Plus an "annual clinical program" of $1,620 a year, billed 1/12 each month, cancel any time. Of that: ⁸

• $900 goes to Broad Health P.A. or other affiliated medical practices for doctor visits
• $78 goes to the lab for testing
• $642 goes to Hone (Time Therapeutics, Inc.) for the platform, support and operations

Hone says routine follow-up labs and consults are included in that fee; initial tests, separately charged confirmation tests, and medication are not. ^{6 8}

What Hims' price covers, and what it doesn't say

Hims says its plans include the medication, ongoing lab work, provider messaging, dose changes, and free shipping. Its general refund policy says a refund is not guaranteed after pharmacy processing. We did not confirm a Testosterone Rx-specific refund for unused prepaid months, renewal pricing, or what happens to the kit fee when no prescription is issued. ^{1 3 54}

The fair head-to-head: enclomiphene-based care, same 10 months

If a clinician recommends enclomiphene and you accept the full term, Hims is $731–$825 less in this starting-price model. You trade that price difference for a 10-month commitment and mostly-message care. The pills, ingredients, prescribed amounts and service are not necessarily the same. That's a fair trade for some men. Just make it on purpose. ^{1 2 3 4 6 11}

If $135 a month plus medication and initial tests fits your budget, review the Plus plan before starting an intake. Hone's general testosterone landing page currently promotes a $65 testing entry instead. Check Hone Plus's full fees and testing steps → Hone says it refunds the first membership fee if treatment is not appropriate. Its cancellation policy makes a shipped test kit non-refundable. ^{8 12 17}

Only need enclomiphene-based care, and comfortable with the lower-priced 10-month prepay? See Hims' current plan terms. We earn nothing from that link. Before you pay, ask Hims in writing what's refunded if you stop early.

---

What's the one thing Hone doesn't do—and why might it not matter to you?

Hone does not offer the lowest ten-month enclomiphene price of these two. Using the starting prices above, Hims is $731–$825 less, depending on the kit credit. Hone gives you monthly membership billing, a live physician visit and a confirming-test step before testosterone. ^{1 3 6}

We'll be blunt, because you deserve it. Hone does not give you the lowest advertised ten-month price for enclomiphene-based care. If the cheaper 10-month program is your priority and its clinical and billing terms fit, Hims is the better-priced pick of these two, and our cheapest enclomiphene guide has more options. ^{1 3 6}

But look at what Hone offers without a long membership prepay. You pay membership month to month, so ending that subscription does not require buying out a ten-month term. Your first visit is a live video call with a physician. If testosterone looks right, Hone requires a second confirming test before you start. Its Plus TRT schedule then checks labs at months 3, 6, 9, 12 and 18. For a man who wants actual testosterone evaluated through a live physician visit and a confirming test, that's the program he came looking for. ^{6 10 12}

Here's how two Hone patients described it on Trustpilot. These are individual experiences, not typical results:

"Dr. Vilen was well prepared regarding my lab work and medical history." — JP, Trustpilot, October 5, 2026

"$241 a month. That’s almost $3,000 dollars a year for TRT." — Andrew Acosta, Trustpilot, October 6, 2026 (1-star review)

We included the second one on purpose. Your total depends on the medication and amount you're prescribed. Get the number in writing first. Both reviews were visible on Hone's Trustpilot profile on October 14, 2026 and labeled unprompted. ¹⁹

A note on Hone's own testimonials: Hone's testosterone page labels its patient stories "Compensated Hone Patient." Those patients received compensation. We don't use those stories here. ¹⁷

---

What else should you know about each one before you pay?

Hone's men's hormone plans have gaps in 14 states and D.C., bill membership and medication separately, and make shipped kits non-refundable. Hims' lowest rate requires a ten-month prepay, while its unused-term refund terms remain unconfirmed. The FTC also sued Hims & Hers over billing, cancellation and privacy in July 2026; those claims are allegations, not findings of wrongdoing. ^{1 9 12 26 54}

Any one of these can be a dealbreaker for the reader it affects. A reasonable person would want to know them.

Hone: what to know

• Not in 14 states and D.C. No men's testosterone plan in AL, AK, AR, CT, DE, KS, LA, MN, NH, NJ, ND, PA, RI, SC or D.C. In New York, only Premium is offered. In Hawaii and South Dakota, only Plus. ⁹
• Two separate bills. Membership bills monthly. Medication is billed separately by order, which may cover several months. Canceling one doesn't cancel the other. ¹²
• Lab fees stay paid. Hone says lab fees aren't refunded once the kit ships. ¹²
• Identity checks. Hone's help center says it requires a valid photo ID and requests your Social Security number. Ask about accepted identification, any alternative process and the data policy before paying. ⁴⁰
• Compounded testosterone. The testosterone products advertised here are compounded, not FDA-approved. A separate local-pharmacy prescription may offer a different option. More below. ^{14 16 17}
• Membership doesn't stop on its own. It bills monthly even in a month you skip medication, unless you pause (up to 3 months) or cancel. ^{12 32}

If any of these rule Hone out for you, see our Hone Health alternatives.

Hims: what to know

• No testosterone today. Only enclomiphene-based pills on the storefront checked. ¹
• The low price needs a big prepay. $99 a month means $990 up front for 10 months. Hims does not guarantee a refund after pharmacy processing; a specific unused-term refund was not confirmed. ^{1 54}
• Mostly messaging. Hims uses an asynchronous model, meaning you and your provider trade messages instead of meeting live. Hims says video is required in some states. ^{1 4}
• No public state list. Hims says Testosterone Rx "is not available in all 50 states" but doesn't say which states are out. ¹
• A federal lawsuit. On July 29, 2026, the FTC, joined by Utah and California, sued Hims & Hers. The complaint alleges deceptive billing, difficult cancellation, and sharing sensitive health data with advertising platforms such as Meta and Snap without the required consent. These are allegations. Hims denies them. The complaint does not identify testosterone as a specific treatment at issue. ²⁶

If Hims' limits rule it out for you, see our Hims testosterone alternatives.

Privacy is not a certification claim. Hims' privacy policy says Hims & Hers is not itself a HIPAA-covered entity, though it may act as a business associate for some services. That does not mean all information lacks legal protection; it means you should read the platform policy and the medical practice's notice separately. We have not audited either company's data handling. Read Hims' privacy policy before sharing sensitive information. ⁴⁸

Is enclomiphene as good as testosterone therapy?

They do different jobs, so "better" depends on your diagnosis and goals. Enclomiphene can raise a man's own testosterone but is not FDA-approved; European regulators rejected EnCyzix in 2018 because the evidence did not establish enough benefit relative to risk. Testosterone may improve some symptoms in appropriately diagnosed men, but it can suppress sperm production. ^{20 21 23 46}

Here's the plain version of each.

Enclomiphene. Studies show it can raise testosterone levels in selected men whose testicles still respond but receive too little hormonal stimulation (secondary hypogonadism). That is not proof that it improves every symptom or protects fertility. No FDA-approved drug contains enclomiphene; Hims and Hone offer compounded products. Europe's medicines regulator rejected EnCyzix in 2018 because studies did not establish symptom benefits and raised concern about blood clots. Hims' own page says research on its side effects is limited. ^{1 6 23 46}

Testosterone therapy. The American Urological Association (AUA) tells clinicians to explain that testosterone therapy may improve erectile function, low sex drive, anemia, bone density, lean muscle mass, and depressive symptoms. It also says evidence is inconclusive for energy, fatigue, thinking, and overall quality of life. The big tradeoff is fertility: testosterone from outside the body can suppress sperm production. ^{20 21}

Who may need a different workup. Enclomiphene may not solve low testosterone caused by testicles that cannot respond adequately to hormonal signals. Your LH result is one clue a clinician uses to tell the difference. We don't interpret labs, and neither should a quiz. ^{20 21}

Which one tests you the right way before prescribing?

Hone's published testosterone path requires a second confirming test; Hims' published intake uses one kit with two collection devices. Two samples collected together are not two early-morning tests on separate days. Neither company's published non-TRT panel lists prolactin, so ask how a clinician orders it when low testosterone occurs with low or low-normal LH. ^{1 4 6 7 11 20}

This is a meaningful published-process difference, not a verdict on an individual patient's care. We lined up each company's public process against the AUA's testosterone-deficiency guideline and the Endocrine Society's diagnostic guidance. The guideline discusses alternative medicines as well as testosterone; it is not an FDA approval of enclomiphene or a substitute for a tailored testing plan. ^{20 21 42}

Our guideline check: published process vs AUA

Our editorial comparison of each company's published process against the AUA guideline, October 14, 2026. It compares what is published, not any individual patient's care. A missing step in a public panel does not prove a clinician never orders it. ^{4 6 7 10 11 20 30}

Our read: Hone's testosterone documents describe more of these specific steps before prescribing. Hims' first panel is actually broader than Hone Plus on day one: it includes PSA, hematocrit and FSH, which Hone's starter kit doesn't. Ask Hims about separate-day confirmation and indicated prolactin testing, and ask both companies how they evaluate fertility before treatment. ^{4 6 7 20}

A few terms, in plain words

• Total testosterone: all the testosterone in your blood.
• Free testosterone: the small share not stuck to proteins.
• SHBG (sex hormone-binding globulin): a protein that holds onto testosterone.
• LH (luteinizing hormone): a pituitary hormone that tells the testicles to make testosterone.
• FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone): a pituitary hormone that helps support sperm production.
• Prolactin: a pituitary hormone. High levels can lower testosterone and point to a problem that needs its own workup.
• Hemoglobin: the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen.
• Hematocrit: the share of your blood made of red blood cells. Testosterone can raise it.
• PSA (prostate-specific antigen): a prostate blood test. It is not a cancer diagnosis by itself. ^{20 21}

What each first test measures

The table below records the published panels, not a checklist every reader should order. Hone labels free testosterone as calculated in its lab schedules. ^{4 6 7 30}

Why two tests matter: testosterone varies from day to day and with time of collection. The AUA requires two early-morning total testosterone tests on separate occasions, plus symptoms or signs, before diagnosing testosterone deficiency. The Endocrine Society also specifies fasting morning testing with accurate assays; a cutoff such as 300 ng/dL is not a diagnosis on its own. Follow your clinician's collection instructions, including how shift work or illness affects timing. Read do you need two low testosterone tests? ^{20 21 42}

The number of appointments is not the whole monitoring plan. Hone Plus lists its first routine on-treatment hematocrit at month 6; Premium includes a complete blood count at month 3 and later visits. The Endocrine Society recommends hematocrit at baseline, 3–6 months, and then annually for testosterone therapy. Ask which tests you will receive, when, and what could trigger an earlier check. Hims says its month-3/month-15 pill schedule resets after a dosage change; ask when other tests would be added. ^{4 10 21 30}

Does a confirming test before testosterone sound like the careful start you want? Hone's Plus plan starts with a $45 at-home test and a physician video visit. Review Hone's Plus lab requirements and fees →

---

Will you talk to a real doctor at Hims or Hone?

At Hone, Plus and Premium begin with a live video call with a Hone-affiliated physician, according to its plan documents. At Hims, care is mostly by message, with a video visit required in some states. Both offer ongoing care-team contact; messaging access is not a promise of an immediate physician reply. ^{1 6 7 49}

Hone. Plus and Premium both start with a live video consultation with a Hone physician. Follow-up consults are included in the membership. Hone also runs an "async" option with no video, but only for products like sildenafil, vitamin B12, NAD+ and sermorelin. Testosterone isn't on that list. ^{6 7 13}

Hims. Hims reviews your intake and labs through its app and messages. Its FAQ says a video visit is required "in some states." Hims' plans include 24/7 care team access, provider check-ins and dose adjustments. Hims also publishes a clinician roster. Ask who is assigned, their credentials, and how to request a live visit; we did not independently verify an individual prescriber for this comparison. ^{1 39}

Who prescribes at Hone. Hone says its affiliated medical practices are "independently owned and operated by licensed physicians." Broad Health P.A. is named in Hone's payment breakdown. You can check any prescriber's license yourself. Here's how to verify a TRT provider's license. ⁸

How refills, support and records work

These are provider-stated instructions, not measured delivery times, tested support service, or a guarantee that a refill will be approved. Ask about pending lab requirements before the current supply runs low; a subscription is not emergency care. ^{1 33 34 35 36 38 49 55 56}

---

Is Hims or Hone available in your state?

Hone offers men's testosterone care in 36 states: 35 on its Plus plan, plus New York on Premium only. It has no men's testosterone plan in 14 states or Washington, D.C. Hims says its testosterone program isn't in all 50 states but doesn't publish a program-specific list on the pages checked. ^{1 9}

The two companies' comparison pages use different counts: Hims says Hone is in "36 states," while Hone says "35." The current state grid resolves the difference: 35 on Plus, plus New York on Premium, makes 36. Premium itself covers 34 states. ^{4 9 18}

Hone's men's testosterone plans by state

From Hone's 2026 state grid, updated September 4, 2026. Plus uses an at-home test kit. Premium requires an in-lab draw. A listed state isn't a promise of treatment; a physician still decides. ⁹

Hims: check at intake. Hims doesn't publish a state list for its testosterone program. Its blog says most Hims medications are available in all 50 states and D.C., but that describes the platform, not Testosterone Rx. ^{1 4}

Where you are matters, not where you live on paper. Online prescribers must be allowed to practice in the state where you're physically located during the visit. Giving a different address to get around a state limit isn't a workaround; it can undermine lawful care. ⁴⁷

What if Hone doesn't serve your state?

If you live in one of Hone's 15 gaps (14 states plus D.C.), Male Excel's published testosterone exclusions leave six of them available to check: Delaware, Kansas, New Jersey, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, and South Carolina. Male Excel also excludes the other eight states; its D.C. position was not confirmed. Local primary care, urology, or endocrinology remains another care route. ^{9 28}

We built this table to show which of Hone's gaps Male Excel's published list may fill. It cross-checks Hone's gaps against Male Excel's published state exclusions.

*Male Excel's hormone-treatment FAQ excludes AL, AK, AR, CT, HI, ID, LA, MN, MS, NH and RI. We rechecked the official FAQ on October 14, 2026; see our Male Excel state availability page. A state not excluded is an option to confirm, not a promise of a prescription. ²⁸

What Male Excel offers, briefly. Male Excel is an online testosterone clinic. Its pricing page, checked October 14, 2026, lists a $99 consultation with at-home test, a $99/month medical membership with unlimited e-visits and messaging, testosterone cypionate from $120/month billed as a 60-day supply, and testosterone cream from $132/month, plus shipping. It says its medication is FSA/HSA eligible with no contract. ^{27 28}

At those starting prices, a 12-payment injection-package model is $2,727 plus shipping ($99 + 12 × $99 + 12 × $120). The drug component is billed as a 60-day supply, so the $120 figure means a starting $240 fill, not necessarily a monthly drug charge. This is our math from starting prices, not a complete 365-day cash quote; confirm fill dates, follow-up testing charges and any other required care. ^{27 28}

What to know about Male Excel before you click:

• Its advertised testosterone packages include thyroid medication. That does not establish that thyroid treatment is right for every patient. Ask what medical finding would justify it in your case. ^{27 28}
• It markets compounded testosterone, not FDA-approved preparations. Confirm the exact product and pharmacy before paying. ²⁸
• Prescription medication sales are final, per its FAQ, and its guarantee covers membership fees only, with conditions. ^{28 41}
• It frames insurance around "optimal" levels, which isn't the same standard the AUA uses to diagnose low testosterone. ^{20 27}

If those trade-offs fit, it's a practical route for men Hone can't serve. More detail: Male Excel vs Hone Health and Male Excel cost.

What if you're trying to have kids?

If you're trying to conceive soon, a fertility-focused evaluation comes before either subscription. The AUA says clinicians should not prescribe testosterone to men currently trying to conceive, and no enclomiphene plan can promise fertility preservation. Start with a urologist or reproductive urologist; if you already take treatment, ask the prescriber to coordinate that review. ^{20 21 50}

This matters more than which app you pick.

• Testosterone from outside the body can suppress sperm production. It can reduce the hormonal signals needed for sperm production. The AUA says this should be discussed with any man who wants future children, and that testosterone shouldn't be prescribed to men trying to conceive now. ^{20 21 50}
• Men with testosterone deficiency who are interested in fertility should get a reproductive health evaluation before treatment, per the AUA. That may include a semen analysis, which is a sperm count and quality test. Neither published pathway checked lists a routine semen analysis; ask whether one is needed and who would arrange it. ^{20 50}
• Enclomiphene and clomiphene are not testosterone. Doctors sometimes use medicines in this class for selected men who want to maintain fertility. The AUA allows clinicians to consider selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs); that is not an FDA approval of enclomiphene or a pregnancy guarantee. Hims markets its pill as "fertility-friendly." That's Hims' claim, not a promise about your sperm. ^{1 20 45 46 50}

Clomiphene is different from enclomiphene. Clomiphene has FDA-approved products for ovulatory dysfunction in women; its use for male testosterone deficiency is off-label. A compounded clomiphene product is not itself FDA-approved. Enclomiphene has no FDA-approved product. Neither is standard testosterone replacement therapy. ^{22 45 46}

Compounded or FDA-approved: what would you actually get?

Hims' current hormone pills and the testosterone products Hone advertises here are compounded, not FDA-approved. That does not make the two treatments interchangeable: Hims' pill contains enclomiphene, not testosterone. Hone says it can send a suitable prescription to a local pharmacy, which is a separate dispensing and payment arrangement. ^{1 14 16 17 22}

What "compounded" means. A compounding pharmacy mixes a drug for a patient. The FDA doesn't review compounded drugs for safety, effectiveness or quality before they're sold, the way it does for approved products. Compounded isn't the same as FDA-approved, generic, or "equivalent." That's the FDA's position, not ours. ²²

What each company says:

• Hims: Its storefront says its compounded products are not FDA-approved and have not been evaluated by the FDA for safety, effectiveness or quality. Hims also calls enclomiphene investigational. ^{1 2}
• Hone: Its testosterone sales page identifies the advertised cypionate as compounded and not FDA-approved. Its brand-sourcing article also identifies testosterone, creams and troches among compounded products. ^{16 17}

If you want an FDA-approved product. Hone says it can send your prescription to a local pharmacy of your choice. Your membership keeps billing, and the pharmacy charges you directly for the medication. Hone doesn't help with insurance or prior authorization, so you'd handle that with your insurer. If FDA-approved medication and insurance coverage both matter, your own doctor or a local urologist may be the simpler route. See FDA-approved testosterone products. ^{14 16}

A note on testosterone cream. Hone's cream can rub off on partners and children through skin contact. The AUA tells clinicians to discuss that risk. Read testosterone cream transfer risk. ²⁰

Which pharmacy fills it, and what safety questions remain?

Hone says its dispensing pharmacy can vary by medication and state; it does not guarantee one manufacturer. A specific assigned dispensing pharmacy for either company was not verified before enrollment. Ask for the pharmacy's legal name, state license, product label, ingredients and whether the exact preparation is FDA-approved or compounded. Check the assigned clinician's and pharmacy's licenses with the relevant state boards—not a review score. ^{14 16 39}

A tadalafil bundle adds a separate medicine and separate risks. Tadalafil is not testosterone. Its approved labeling contraindicates use with nitrates and with drugs such as riociguat because blood pressure can fall dangerously; the clinician needs your complete medication list. FDA approval of Cialis does not make Hims' compounded combination FDA-approved. ^{22 53}

Testosterone monitoring also includes blood pressure. FDA's 2025 class-wide labeling action required blood-pressure warnings. HHS announced further requested label changes in June 2026 concerning age-related hypogonadism and prostate conditions; that is not evidence that testosterone is risk-free or that every product's label changed at once. Your clinician should use the current label for the exact product and your health history. ^{43 44}

---

Can you cancel Hims or Hone, and what do you lose?

Hone bills monthly and you can cancel any time, but there are no partial-month refunds and membership and medication must be canceled separately. Hims asks you to cancel at least 48 hours before the next order date and does not guarantee a refund after pharmacy processing. Canceling a future renewal is not a refund of unused prepaid treatment. ^{5 12 54}

Your money if things don't go to plan

Published policies, checked October 14, 2026. ^{4 5 8 12 32 54 56}

How to cancel

Hone: Submit Hone's membership cancellation form in your account and save the time and confirmation. Its cancellation policy says cancellation counts from submission, even if staff process it 1–2 business days later; its membership FAQ instead says the end of the current billing period. Ask support to confirm when access and billing end. Contact Hone separately to stop any pending medication. ^{12 32}

Hims: On the website, go to Subscriptions → Manage → Get Help → Additional Options → Manage Subscription → Discontinue plan → Cancel Subscription. The app starts from your profile and Subscriptions, then the Additional Options / Manage Subscription steps. Do it at least 48 hours before your next order date. For testosterone-program labs already ordered without a prescription, Hims directs you to support. Ask in writing what happens to any unused prepaid months. ^{5 54}

To get your records: Hims says to email support@forhims.com with "Medical Records Request" in the subject line. Hone offers lab PDFs in Files and consultation export through Account Menu → Consult History → Export. These are records, not permission to fill a prescription at another pharmacy. ^{35 36 38}

Before you switch anything: ask for your lab results and treatment records. And don't stop or change a prescription on your own. Talk to the prescriber about how to do it safely. Read how to switch TRT providers.

Does insurance, HSA or FSA cover Hims or Hone?

Hims doesn't use insurance and doesn't accept HSA or FSA payments for the program described here. Hone is cash-pay, doesn't help with prior authorization, and says it can process HSA and FSA cards, but your plan decides what qualifies. If insurance coverage is essential, an in-network primary care doctor or urologist may be the better starting point. ^{1 14 15}

• Hims: Its testosterone FAQ says insurance isn't required and "Hims & Hers doesn't take FSA or HSA plans as payment at this time." ¹
• Hone: Hone says it's "set up to process HSA/FSA cards," but each plan administrator sets its own rules. It's a cash-pay service and "does not assist with prior authorizations or insurance processing." ^{14 15}

Being able to swipe an HSA card isn't the same as insurance coverage. If coverage matters, see TRT providers that take insurance or TRT providers that accept HSA or FSA.

---

Are Hims and Hone Health legit?

Both are active telehealth businesses that arrange care through clinicians. On October 14, 2026, Hone's Trustpilot profile showed 4.8 from 12,400 reviews and Hims' showed 2.9 from 9,566. Neither business-wide score proves a clinician's license, treatment quality or fit for you. ^{8 19 39}

What the scores can't tell you. Neither score is testosterone-only. Hone's mixes men's and women's care. Hims' mixes hair, sexual health, weight loss and more. Reviews can show billing or support patterns. They can't prove safety, results, or whether a diagnosis was right. Both profiles are marked "asks customers to review." ¹⁹

Recent examples, as customer signals. The profiles include comments about billing, delivery and communication, as well as praise for care. The two Hone reviews quoted above show why both physician contact and the final bill matter. We did not build a representative review sample, so we do not turn selected reviews into typical results or a measured complaint rate. ¹⁹

The lawsuit, plainly. The FTC's July 29, 2026 complaint against Hims & Hers covers billing, cancellation, and health-data sharing. It was filed in federal court in Northern California. A complaint is not a judgment, and Hims denies the claims. ²⁶

The date to ask about: January 1, 2027

Testosterone is a Schedule III controlled substance and requires a valid prescription. The temporary DEA/HHS rule allows qualifying DEA-registered practitioners to prescribe it through real-time audio-video telemedicine without a prior in-person medical evaluation through December 31, 2026, subject to the rule's conditions, legitimate medical purpose, and applicable law. State requirements and the clinician's judgment still matter; this is not a questionnaire-only exception. ^{24 25 47}

What that means for you: ask Hone in writing what changes after December 31 if the temporary rule is not extended or replaced. The special-registration document we located is a proposal; we did not locate a published permanent replacement applicable to this care as of October 14, 2026. Hims' current pill is not testosterone; the rule matters to Hone's testosterone service and any future Hims testosterone service. This is a question to ask, not a reason to rush. ^{11 25 57}

---

Can you switch from Hims to Hone later?

Yes, but plan it. Check your Hims term and request your records; do not delay a needed clinical review just to use up prepaid months. Hone may accept qualifying recent outside labs, but it still requires its initial test/consultation purchase and may order additional or confirming tests. ^{5 36 37}

1. Check your Hims plan dates. Know when your prepaid term ends and when the next charge hits. Cancel at least 48 hours before the next order date if you're not renewing.
2. Ask Hims in writing about any refund for unused months.
3. Request your lab results and treatment history from Hims using its medical-records process. ³⁶
4. Ask Hone whether your existing labs are accepted. Its policy requires results from the last 90 days, all required markers, and purchase of its initial test/consultation package. Confirmation before testosterone remains a separate clinical step. ^{6 37}
5. Don't overlap or stop medication on your own. Tell both prescribers what you take and ask them to coordinate any transition.

Hone's Bring Your Own Labs policy may avoid repeating an accepted draw, not the initial purchase. A missing marker can still mean more testing. ³⁷

---

What should you ask Hims or Hone before you pay?

A written answer to five questions turns an ad price into a usable quote: the exact medicine, every charge and date, refund terms, required tests, and plans for any federal rule change after December 31, 2026. Ask the clinician about treatment and the billing team about payment; a support reply cannot determine medical eligibility.

Copy this and send it to either company's support before you pay:

1. Which medicines and treatment formats are available for my clinician to consider? Before I approve a prescription charge, can I see the exact product, ingredients, FDA-approved or compounded status, and dispensing pharmacy?
2. Please list every charge in my first 365 days, with dates: tests, membership or plan, medication fill size and days supplied, shipping, and any extra visits. Which charges buy supply beyond that year?
3. If I'm not prescribed anything, what's refunded? If I stop early, what happens to any prepaid months?
4. How do you confirm low testosterone with symptoms or signs and separate-day morning testing? Which additional tests does my history require, including prolactin when indicated, hemoglobin/hematocrit, and age-appropriate prostate assessment?
5. If the temporary federal telehealth rule expires or changes after December 31, 2026, what happens to my care, prescription, in-person requirements and membership?

Add this if it applies: "I'd like to have children in the next two years. How do you handle fertility before treatment?"

How did we compare Hims and Hone?

We read each company's own pages, help articles, plan documents and policies on October 14, 2026. We did the cost math ourselves and compared the published processes with the AUA guideline and current Endocrine Society guidance. We did not sign up, order labs, receive care, or test support from either company.

This page follows our documented method, How We Review TRT Providers. It separates four kinds of claims: facts we verified, things the provider states, customer experiences, and our own judgment.

What we actually verified — October 14, 2026

Sources checked: Hims' storefront, Rx+ product page, pricing guide, comparison, clinician information, cancellation/refund, billing, refill, records and privacy pages; Hone's Plus and Premium documents, state grid, three lab schedules, retesting FAQ, payment breakdown, cancellation policy, membership FAQ, pharmacy policies, support, refills, records and outside-lab policy; Male Excel's current pricing, state exclusions and guarantee. We also checked the Trustpilot profiles, the published AUA guideline text, Endocrine Society guidance including its July 2026 statement, FDA/EMA materials, DEA/HHS rules, the FTC complaint and Hims' response.

Verified publications and arithmetic: the current Hims coming-soon labels; published plan/test prices; Hone's separate medication pricing; its $1,620 annual payment breakdown; 36 states covered by at least one of the two men's plans; published lab schedules; refund and cancellation wording; explicit compounding disclosures; and Male Excel's starting prices and exclusions. Our sums can be reproduced from the linked inputs; those sums are not personal quotes.

Provider-stated, not independently tested: what each plan includes; actual access to a clinician; support, processing and delivery times; fulfillment by an assigned pharmacy; Hone's first-membership-fee refund; Hims' kit credit; and fertility-related marketing. Finding a statement online verifies what was published, not that every patient receives it.

Material limits: Hims' product-specific unused-term refund, kit refund after ineligibility, three- and five-month charge schedules, renewal prices and program-specific state list; the final applicable Hone confirmation fee and cancellation effective date where its documents conflict; exact assigned clinicians/pharmacies; individualized first-year cash charges; a Hims TRT launch date; a published permanent federal replacement for the temporary rule; and Male Excel's D.C. coverage. No personal checkout or clinical encounter was completed.

Customer-experience signals: dated Trustpilot scores and two attributable reviews. These describe individual experiences, not typical results or medical outcomes.

Our judgment: the defined-buyer recommendations, the published-process comparison, and the state cross-check. These are built from the dated facts above, not a numeric medical score.

Spotted something out of date? Tell us. We fix verified errors and note what changed. See our editorial standards and privacy policy.

Hims vs Hone Health testosterone: FAQ

The main distinction is treatment type: Hims' current pill is enclomiphene, while Hone lists testosterone treatment. These answers use the October 14, 2026 public pages; prescriptions, state access and final charges still depend on your situation. ^{1 6 9}

Is Hims testosterone real testosterone?

No. Hims' Testosterone Rx is a compounded enclomiphene pill, sometimes combined with tadalafil and supplements. It can signal your body to make more of its own testosterone. It contains no testosterone. ^{1 2}

Does Hims offer testosterone injections yet?

Not as of October 14, 2026. Hims' storefront lists injectable testosterone cypionate as "Coming in 2026*," and its FAQ says it doesn't offer TRT injections. ¹

Does Hims have Kyzatrex?

Not yet. Hims announced it in September 2025, but its storefront still shows oral Kyzatrex as "Coming in 2026*." ^{1 29}

How much is Hone Health per month?

Hone Plus is $135 a month and Premium is $155, plus medication. Testosterone cypionate starts at $28 per vial. Cream and troches are listed at $60 per month; enclomiphene starts at $42 per month on Plus and $43 on Premium. Initial and any charged confirmation tests are separate, and the first medication fill may cover more than one month. ^{6 7 33}

How much is Hims testosterone per month?

$199 a month on a 3-month plan, $139 on a 5-month plan, or $99 on a 10-month plan paid up front ($990). The first lab kit is $94, which Hims says is credited toward treatment if you're eligible. ^{1 3 4}

Which is cheaper, Hims or Hone?

For 10 months of enclomiphene-based care at published starting prices, Hims is $990–$1,084 depending on its kit credit, versus Hone Plus from $1,815. These are different compounded products and care arrangements, not guaranteed equivalent treatment. For testosterone, Hims has no currently offered storefront program to price against Hone; Hone's full bill needs a medication quote and charge calendar. ^{1 3 4 6}

Do I need two blood tests?

Yes, appropriate repeat testing is part of the diagnosis. The AUA calls for symptoms or signs plus consistently low testosterone, using two early-morning total testosterone tests on separate occasions; the Endocrine Society specifies fasting morning tests with accurate assays. Hone lists a confirming test before testosterone, while Hims' published intake does not describe a separate-morning retest. ^{1 6 20 21 42}

Is enclomiphene FDA-approved?

No. Enclomiphene has no FDA-approved product. Hims and Hone sell compounded versions; inclusion on an FDA compounding nomination list is not drug approval. ^{1 6 22 46}

Does Hone Health use real doctors?

Hone says its Plus and Premium plans start with a live video visit with a licensed Hone physician. Its affiliated practices are independently owned by licensed physicians. ^{6 7 8}

Which states is Hone Health in?

Men's testosterone care is offered in 36 states. It's not offered in AL, AK, AR, CT, DE, KS, LA, MN, NH, NJ, ND, PA, RI, SC or D.C. ⁹

Can I get a refund if I'm not prescribed?

Hone says it refunds the first membership fee if a physician decides treatment is not appropriate; its shipped-kit fee is non-refundable. Hims describes a $94 kit credit for eligible treatment, but we did not confirm a kit refund after ineligibility. Neither statement guarantees a refund for medication already processed. ^{4 8 12 54}

Do Hims or Hone take HSA or FSA?

Hims doesn't. Hone says it can process HSA/FSA cards, but your plan administrator decides what qualifies. ^{1 15}

Will either one affect my fertility?

Testosterone can suppress sperm production. Enclomiphene is used with the goal of keeping it going, but that isn't guaranteed. If you want children soon, see a urologist or reproductive urologist before starting either. ^{20 21 50}

Why did the FTC sue Hims & Hers?

The FTC, Utah and California filed a complaint against Hims & Hers on July 29, 2026 over billing, cancellation and health-data sharing. These are allegations, Hims denies them, and the complaint is not a court finding. ²⁶

What happens to online testosterone prescriptions in 2027?

The current temporary federal flexibility runs through December 31, 2026. It allows qualifying DEA-registered practitioners to prescribe controlled medication through compliant telemedicine under specified conditions; applicable state law still governs. We did not locate a published permanent replacement for this care as of the audit date. Ask your provider about continuity and any in-person requirement, without assuming an automatic cutoff or guaranteed extension. ^{25 47 57}
