Male Excel vs Peter MD: what actually matters

Male Excel and Peter MD both start at $99 a month, but that number means different things at each clinic. Peter MD's $99 is one flat fee for medication, unlimited provider consults and shipping, backed by a price-match guarantee if you find a lower verified quote elsewhere. Its plan page lists $79 a month on a 12-month plan ($948 upfront), $109 on 6 months ($654 upfront) and $139 month to month (read 14 October 2026). Blood work is billed on top: $340 for the first year and $115 a year after, on Peter MD's own page. Male Excel's $99 is a membership fee; the testosterone cream is billed on top, from $132 a month on Male Excel's cost page, so the cream route starts at about $231 a month.

Delivery is the bigger fork in the road: Male Excel leads with a needle-free option, a twice-daily cream (it sells injections too), versus Peter MD's injectable cypionate. Peter MD's own pages list injections, oral enclomiphene and HCG, and no testosterone cream (read 6 October 2026). Clinically, Male Excel scores higher in our data (9.0/10 vs 7.5/10). Peter MD trades clinical depth for a flatter, more predictable price.

One thing worth knowing before picking Peter MD on price alone: its own Better Business Bureau profile (PeterMD, Tulsa, Oklahoma, which links getpetermd.com) is rated A+ and accredited since August 2026, with 22 complaints in three years. Its primary Trustpilot profile was removed for violating Trustpilot's guidelines, and a separate petermd.org profile reads 2.7 out of 5 from 22 reviews, several describing orders that were not delivered (read 8 and 12 October 2026). Verify current order and refund terms directly before paying upfront. State availability is similar in scale: Peter MD excludes Alabama and Idaho; Male Excel excludes eleven states, including Alabama, Minnesota and Hawaii.

How we score: every clinic is rated on five weighted criteria from documented evidence. Prices are checked weekly by an automated job against each clinic's live page; a price unconfirmed for 45 days is automatically relabeled “Last confirmed” instead of “Verified.” Scores are never influenced by affiliate commissions. “Visit” buttons are affiliate links that support our work.
