Frequently asked questions

ACT 2 is a premium, clinician-led membership for adults in their second act. We focus on metabolic health, hormone optimization, and peptide therapy — measuring your biomarkers first, then building a plan around your body and adjusting it over time. See how it works.

Four steps: start a short online assessment, have a licensed clinician review your case, receive a personalized plan built around your biomarkers, and get your treatment delivered to your door with ongoing support. It's membership-led care, not one-off services.

No. The process is 100% online with no video calls required. You complete a confidential questionnaire, and a clinician reviews your case on your schedule.

Just a few questions — most people finish in under a few minutes. Start the assessment.

Adults — both men and women — in their 40s, 50s, and beyond who want measurable, clinician-guided support for energy, weight, hormones, recovery, and healthy aging. Explore For Women or For Men.

Eligibility is determined by a clinician based on your assessment and health history. The quickest way to find out is to see if you're eligible — there's no obligation.

Yes. Assessment, clinician review, and ongoing support are fully online, and prescriptions ship to your door.

Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as signals in the body — directing processes like tissue repair, growth-hormone release, and metabolism. Learn more in What Are Peptides?.

It depends on the peptide and the goal. Some, like GLP-1 medications, are well-studied; others are popular ahead of the evidence. We give you an honest, evidence-led read rather than promises. See peptides: hype vs. evidence.

Safety depends on the specific peptide, the source, the dose, and the oversight. We only consider peptide therapy for eligible patients under clinical evaluation and monitoring, with quality-controlled sourcing. Read Are Peptides Safe?.

It varies by peptide. Some are FDA-approved, some are prepared by licensed compounding pharmacies under a prescription, and some are not approved for human use. We work within applicable regulations. See Are Peptides Legal?.

Our catalog includes growth-hormone-supporting peptides (Sermorelin, CJC-1295/Ipamorelin), recovery peptides (BPC-157, the Wolverine and Glow stacks), GHK-Cu, PT-141, and GLP-1 peptide medications. Browse Peptide Therapy.

Depending on the peptide, as a subcutaneous injection, oral capsule, or oral dissolving tablet. A clinician helps you choose. See injectable vs. oral peptides.

Restoring key hormones toward healthy, evidence-based ranges based on your labs — to support energy, sleep, mood, strength, and metabolism. Explore Hormone Optimization.

For eligible men, TRT helps support energy, strength, body composition, and drive when testosterone has declined. We offer oral options and monitor closely. See Men's testosterone therapy.

Estrogen and progesterone therapy (including estradiol and progesterone) and, where appropriate, testosterone — to help manage perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms. See Women's hormone therapy.

For eligible patients under proper clinical monitoring, hormone therapy is a well-established option. Safety comes from the oversight — baseline labs, careful dosing, and regular follow-up.

Yes. Women produce and rely on testosterone, and it often declines in perimenopause, affecting energy, strength, and libido. Where appropriate, it may be considered alongside estrogen and progesterone.

You don't have to guess — we start with comprehensive lab panels and a symptom history, which show whether hormones are driving how you feel.

GLP-1 receptor agonists like semaglutide and tirzepatide work with your body's appetite and blood-sugar signaling to reduce hunger and support fat loss, alongside nutrition and strength work. Explore Medical Weight Loss.

Semaglutide acts on the GLP-1 pathway; tirzepatide acts on two pathways (GLP-1 and GIP) and has shown greater average weight loss in studies for many patients. The right choice is individual. See GLP-1s explained.

Some muscle loss can occur with any significant weight loss. Our protocols protect lean mass through protein, resistance training, and monitoring — because preserving muscle in midlife matters.

The most common are gastrointestinal, such as nausea, and they often ease with careful dose titration under clinical guidance.

Not necessarily. Your protocol is reviewed and adjusted over time, and some members taper as habits and biomarkers improve. It's decided together, based on your data.

Yes — we offer semaglutide and tirzepatide as both injections and oral capsules, so you can choose with your clinician.

NAD+ is a coenzyme central to cellular energy production that declines with age. NAD+ therapy is explored to support energy and cellular health. Explore NAD+ Therapy.

Interest is high, but robust long-term human evidence for many benefits is still limited. We consider it for eligible patients with realistic expectations, as a complement within a broader plan. See NAD+ explained.

As an injection, nasal spray, or oral tablet — a clinician helps you choose based on preference and your plan.

Discreet, clinician-led care for libido and intimacy — including PT-141 and hormone-based options for both men and women, addressed at the root. Explore Sexual Wellness.

PT-141 is a peptide explored to support libido by acting on nervous-system pathways associated with desire — a different mechanism from blood-flow-focused options. It may be considered for eligible men and women. See PT-141 explained.

Yes. The assessment is confidential and clinician-led, and we treat the topic with respect throughout.

From licensed, quality-controlled compounding pharmacies, prescribed for you by a clinician — not unverified online products. Sourcing is one of the most important safety factors, and we take it seriously.

It depends on the specific treatment. Some are FDA-approved medications; others are compounded under a prescription within applicable regulations. Your clinician will explain what applies to your plan.

Your dose is a clinical decision, calibrated to your labs, goals, and response — and adjusted over time. We never use a one-size protocol.

Your prescription ships directly to your door, with ongoing support and adjustments as part of your membership.

Yes. Your plan is reviewed and adjusted over time based on how you respond — that ongoing tuning is central to how membership-led care works.

Yes. We measure first — baseline lab panels and a health history establish whether a treatment is appropriate and tailor it safely. Learn about lab testing.

Through follow-ups and repeat labs on a defined cadence, so a clinician can confirm the plan is working and safe, and adjust as needed.

Eligibility depends on your individual health history. Some conditions and medications call for caution or rule out certain treatments — which is exactly why a clinical assessment comes first. Always disclose your full history.

Contact your care team. Monitoring and high-touch support mean side effects are addressed early, with dose adjustments or a change of course where needed.

Pricing is transparent and shown upfront for each treatment, so you know what you're paying before you start. See current pricing and treatments.
