What does each HRT product cost at each provider?

Winona publishes a price for each product; Gala covers all its HRT products in one plan; Midi doesn't sell medication - your pharmacy does.

What is included in the price?

Winona and Gala bundle the clinician, follow-up, medication and shipping into one monthly price. Midi charges for visits and leaves medication to your pharmacy - so its headline price never includes the hormones.

How much does a typical estrogen and progesterone regimen cost per month?

Most women with a uterus who take estrogen also need progesterone, so the realistic monthly cost is usually a combination: about $89-$188 at Winona, about $69-$99 at Gala, or your pharmacy copays plus visits at Midi.

RegimenWinonaGalaMidi Health (in-network)
Estrogen pill + progesteroneAbout $54 + $39 = $93/moReported from $69/mo (pill plan)Two pharmacy copays + visits
Estrogen patch + progesteroneAbout $149 + $39 = $188/moReported from $99/mo (patch plan)Two pharmacy copays + visits

Estrogen only (after hysterectomy)From $54 (pill) or $149 (patch)Plan priceOne pharmacy copay + visits
Vaginal estrogen onlyAbout $89/moPlan priceOne pharmacy copay + visits

We couldn't confirm whether Winona discounts two products bought together, so its combined figures are upper estimates. Note that the progesterone in a body cream isn't interchangeable with progesterone capsules for protecting the uterus - read progesterone for menopause before choosing on price alone.

How much does online HRT cost in the first year?

For a typical estrogen-plus-progesterone first year: about $828-$1,188 at Gala, about $1,068-$2,256 at Winona, and about $200 in visits plus 12 months of pharmacy copays at Midi with in-network insurance (or about $700 in visits plus medication self-pay).

Provider and scenarioFirst-year cost
Gala - pill plan at $69/moAbout $828 (or about $897 on 12-week billing at $207)
Gala - at the advertised $79/moAbout $948
Gala - patch plan at $99/moAbout $1,188 (or about $1,287 on 12-week billing at $297)
Winona - estrogen + progesterone body creamAbout $1,068
Winona - tablets + progesterone capsulesAbout $1,116
Winona - patch + progesterone capsulesAbout $2,256
Midi - in-network, 4 visits at ~$50About $200 + 12 months of pharmacy copays
Midi - self-pay, 4 visitsAbout $700 ($250 + 3 × $150) + medication

Assumptions: listed starting prices held for 12 months; for Midi, one initial visit plus three follow-ups (your clinician may recommend more or fewer). Real costs depend on dose, promotions, your plan's copays and deductible, and how often you need follow-up.

Which online HRT option is cheapest for you?

With good PPO insurance, Midi is usually cheapest because visits cost a copay and generic hormones are often low-cost through your pharmacy plan. Without insurance, Gala's flat plan is usually the lowest cash price. Winona costs more but offers the widest choice of estrogen forms and no appointments.

Cheapest isn't always best: weigh the care model (video visits vs messaging), product choice, and whether products are FDA-approved. Our provider comparison and rankings cover the full picture, and we check each provider's reviews, BBB record and licensing in is Winona legit?, is Gala legit? and is Midi Health legit?

How much does HRT cost without insurance?

Without insurance, online HRT typically costs about $69-$188 a month for estrogen plus progesterone on a cash-pay service, or $250 for a first visit and $150 per follow-up at Midi Health plus the pharmacy's cash price for medication.

If you're paying out of pocket, the main choice is between an all-inclusive subscription and paying separately for visits and medication:

  • All-inclusive subscription (Winona, Gala) - one predictable monthly price that includes the clinician, follow-up, medication and shipping.
  • Pay-per-visit plus pharmacy (Midi self-pay, or any clinician) - you pay for visits and then for the prescription at your pharmacy's cash price. Generic estradiol and micronized progesterone can be inexpensive with pharmacy discount programs, but prices vary widely by pharmacy, dose and location, so compare before committing.

HSA and FSA funds can usually be used for prescribed hormone therapy and clinician visits, which effectively lowers the cost if you have one of these accounts (see below).

Does insurance cover online HRT?

It depends on the provider. Midi Health is in-network with most commercial PPO plans and sends prescriptions to your pharmacy, so both visits and medication can go through insurance. Winona and Gala don't bill insurance, and because they ship medication themselves, there's no pharmacy claim for your drug plan either.

WinonaGalaMidi Health
Bills insurance for visitsNoNoYes - most commercial PPO plans
Medication covered by your drug planNo (shipped by Winona)No (shipped by Gala)Yes, subject to your formulary
Out-of-network reimbursementYou can submit receipts; depends on your planNot confirmedNot applicable in-network
HMO plansCash-payCash-payNot in-network (self-pay)
MedicareCash-payCash-payNot billed (self-pay only)
MedicaidCash-payCash-payCannot treat Medicaid patients

Before booking an insurance-billed visit, confirm Midi is in-network for your specific plan, check your deductible, and ask for an estimate - billing surprises are the most common complaint about insurance-based telehealth (see Is Midi Health legit?).

Can you pay for online HRT with an HSA or FSA?

Generally yes. Prescription medications and care from licensed clinicians are usually qualified medical expenses. Winona accepts HSA and FSA cards; third-party reviews report Gala does too, though we couldn't confirm it on Gala's own pages; Midi visits and pharmacy copays are typically eligible. Confirm with your plan administrator and keep your receipts. Paying with pre-tax money effectively reduces the cost by your tax rate.

HRT products from top online providers

Real HRT products and published prices from the online providers we rank. Prescription required - a clinician reviews your history first.

Prices as published by each provider, checked October 2026; confirm at checkout. "FDA-approved" and "Compounded" labels appear only where we have verified them.

What hidden costs should you check?

  • Per product vs per regimen: Winona prices each product - adding progesterone adds about $39/month.
  • Billing cycle: some plans bill every 12 weeks rather than monthly (reported for Gala), which changes the upfront payment.
  • Dose changes: higher doses can cost more on per-product pricing.
  • Deductibles: with insurance, you may pay the full visit price until your deductible is met.
  • Labs: billed separately at insurance-based clinics if ordered.
  • Renewals and cancellation: know how and when to cancel to avoid the next charge; cancel in writing.
  • Pharmacy price swings: brand-name products and some patches can cost much more than generic tablets, and some patches have been in short supply in 2026.

How much do testosterone and other add-ons cost?

Of the providers we review, Midi Health lists testosterone pricing for women - in some states, self-pay, at about $45 for a 30-day supply to $100+ for 90 days per Midi, plus any extra labs and visits needed because it's a controlled substance. Winona sells non-HRT add-ons such as its Blossom arousal cream (listed at about $79 per order) - these aren't hormone therapy and are optional. There is no FDA-approved testosterone product for women in the US; see our testosterone for women guide for when it is recommended and how it is monitored.

Is Gala cheaper than Winona?

Usually, yes, for the same regimen. A typical estrogen-plus-progesterone plan is reported from about $69-$99 a month at Gala, versus about $89-$188 at Winona. Winona's case is choice: it offers estrogen body creams, tablets, patches, vaginal cream and estriol, with a physician reachable by message. Compare them side by side in Winona vs Gala.

Is Midi Health cheaper with insurance?

Often, yes. With in-network PPO coverage, Midi says patients pay about $50 per visit on average, and generic hormones through your pharmacy plan are often low-cost - so a year can come to about $200 in visits plus your pharmacy copays. Without insurance, or before your deductible is met, Midi's $250/$150 self-pay visits plus medication usually cost more than a flat cash plan. See Midi Health cost and Gala vs Midi Health.

What is the cheapest way to get an estrogen patch online?

With good insurance, a prescription to your own pharmacy through an in-network clinic like Midi is usually cheapest. Cash-pay, Gala's patch plan is reported from about $99 a month all-in, versus about $149 a month for Winona's patch alone (plus about $39 for progesterone if you need it). Patches have been intermittently hard to find in 2026; services that ship medication handle sourcing for you, while pharmacy prescriptions may need a brand switch. See estrogen patch vs pill.

Why do online HRT prices differ so much?

Mostly because the providers sell different things: Winona and Gala sell an all-inclusive service with medication, while Midi sells clinical visits and leaves medication to your insurance and pharmacy. Within cash-pay services, prices also differ by product range (body creams and patches cost more than tablets), by whether pricing is per product or per plan, and by promotions. That's why comparing the full cost of the regimen you'll actually use matters more than headline "from" prices.

How we gather and check these prices

Prices on this page are the same figures used across our provider reviews and cost guides. Winona's come from its product listings; Gala's "from $79" is its advertised price, and its pill and patch figures are from third-party reviews of its checkout, labelled as such; Midi's visit prices and testosterone range come from Midi's published pricing and help pages. Prices were last checked in October 2026. Providers change prices and run promotions, so always confirm at checkout - and if you spot a change, we'll update this page. We may earn a commission from provider links; it doesn't affect the figures we publish or our rankings (how we rank).

The bottom line on online HRT costs

Online HRT doesn't have one price - it has three pricing models. If you have good PPO insurance, an in-network clinic like Midi Health plus generic hormones from your pharmacy is usually the cheapest route. If you're paying cash, Gala's flat plan is usually the lowest all-in price, while Winona costs more but offers the widest choice of estrogen forms with no appointments. Whichever you choose, compare the full cost of your regimen - including progesterone if you have a uterus - and confirm the price at checkout.
