Most U.S. commercial and Medicare Part D plans cover generic FDA-approved hormone therapy — estradiol patches, gels, pills, and oral micronized progesterone — with copays typically $0–$30. Brand-name products may require prior authorization. Compounded HRT from 503A pharmacies is almost never covered by insurance and is paid cash ($40–$120/month). Testosterone for women is off-label in the U.S. and also typically cash-pay. The kindr membership fee covers the clinician visit and care plan; you use your insurance or cash at the pharmacy.
