Head to head · A quarterly order against a monthly membership
Alloy charges $49.95 once, then bills the patch quarterly at $224.97, which is $81.52 a month across the cycle. Fem Excel charges a $99 membership every month and adds $50 for each medication. The two billing shapes diverge over a year even before the consultation is counted.
Telehealth · estradiol patch with progesterone included
Alloy bills the estradiol patch with progesterone included at $224.97 for a 12-week supply, which is $81.52 a month across the cycle. A $49.95 consultation is charged once with the first order and there is no recurring membership.
Telehealth · membership plus per-medication charge
Fem Excel charges a $99 monthly membership plus medication billed every two months from $50 a month, so estradiol alone comes to $149 a month. A first-month-free promotion is advertised and is not used as the price.

Alloy · where the record stops
The terms name a subscription that renews but do not state the length of a billing period, so the cadence is recorded from the quarterly shipment rather than from a term in the terms.
Fem Excel · where the record stops
The membership is charged whether or not a medication is prescribed, so it cannot be separated from the treatment cost.

Nothing here is medical advice. Whether a treatment is appropriate is a decision for a licensed clinician. A comparison of charges is not a comparison of care, and nothing on this page suggests one program is clinically better than another.
