The careful gathering of women’s health science
Peptide therapy, decoded for women.
Editorial comparisons of peptide telehealth providers — credentials, pharmacy sourcing, pricing, states served — evaluated for women. Plus a free guide to bring to your first consult.
Every claim cited — studies, FDA documents, trial registries
Independent ratings · zero paid placements
Regulatory status dated on every entry
Compared. Six published criteria · zero paid placement. Editorial ratings come from the criteria — never from commercial relationships.
The 2026 moment
A different peptide conversation is finally possible.
April’s Category 2 revisions reshaped the regulated peptide landscape mid-stream, and July’s PCAC review moved it again. This is the first year a careful editorial layer for women is both useful and necessary — and that’s the work.
Why women come here
We read the internet so you don’t have to.
PubMed, FDA filings, peer-reviewed journals, the long tail of women’s-health writing — aggregated, dated, and trimmed to what actually helps you make a decision. Four things you get here that a Google search won’t give you.
- 01
We did the reading
Hundreds of studies, FDA filings, and peer-reviewed papers — aggregated, dated, and organized around the question that brought you here (perimenopause, libido, skin, sleep, recovery, metabolic). You arrive informed, not exhausted from scrolling.
vs. Google: Google gives you ten generic articles ranked by SEO. None of them written for a woman.
- 02
Calibrated evidence vocabulary
Preclinical · limited clinical · multiple human studies · Phase 3 · FDA-approved. Each word means a specific thing, and we use them precisely on every entry.
vs. Google: Google says "studies show." We tell you whose body the study was in.
- 03
Regulatory clarity, post-April
April 2026 removed twelve peptides from FDA Category 2 — with a July 2026 PCAC review still scheduled. Both events flagged on every peptide page, with the FDA-approved exceptions separately marked.
vs. Google: Top Google hits are still telling you BPC-157 is banned. The picture changed in April.
- 04
Tools you can print
A twelve-question consult checklist with handwriting space. A provider scorecard. A one-page evidence chart. Designed for the consult itself, not just the read.
vs. Google: Google gives you information you read once and forget by Friday.
Start where you are
If your goal is X, the peptides worth knowing.
Six entry-points into the catalog — the peptides actually researched for each goal, with the FDA and evidence layer attached. Pick the one that brought you here.
Peptide in focus
Sermorelin
CompoundedHormone & GH-axisA GHRH analog with the longest clinical history of any GH-axis peptide. Currently compoundable in the U.S. (a separate regulatory status from the Category 2 group). Relevant to women for body composition, sleep, and recovery in midlife.

GLP-1 and Hair Loss in Women: What the Ads Get Backwards

GLP-1 Medications for Women: What the Research Actually Says
A grounded look at GLP-1 medications — semaglutide, tirzepatide, and the newer agents in trials — for women specifically: what the 2026 evidence shows, the muscle-and-bone question, the sourcing and regulatory picture, and what these drugs do not do.

Do Peptide Serums Actually Work? Your Skincare Peptides, Graded
