if you can, planned parenthood or your doctor’s office is way more affordable especially if you have insurance

Folx and Plume are about the same. I was with Folx for about a year with injections when I didn’t have insurance but injections didn’t work well for me, so I went back to my local provider when I got insurance for patches and now I’m back to pills.

i'm on folx (tried plume for a month but my dumbass didn't realize folx was cheaper),, it's been great and not overly expensive

my friend uses folx and it was good for him to start out with, but now he goes through their medicaid to a federal health clinic and it's ridiculously cheap. i use planned parenthood with my insurance, but i could use my PCP (some prescribe hrt, some don't) or the same clinic my friend uses.

very very easy to get it going and they're quite responsive

I will also vouch for their responsiveness! It was a pain in the ass to get my bloodwork done in my area as I had to leave town to get to the clinics they worked with for free (otherwise it would be $700 every time for me), and I don’t have a car, but other than that… I liked them.
