The verdict

Winner: Vaylen

Vaylen takes it with a higher Verdict Score — 88/100 to 85/100 (grade B+ vs B). Anyone who wants every option on one account: compounded, brand-name or oral, without leaving to shop around. Hims & Hers still earns its place — people who want a familiar, app-driven consumer brand.

Neither of these is our overall #1. That title goes to CoreAge Rx (94/100) — the most honest middle of the market: nationwide access, both molecules at one flat, no-surprise price.
