Read our full NewSelf review →About Steady State Health
Steady State Health is a women's-health telehealth practice run by nurse practitioner Josie Cowburn, DNP, FNP-C, serving Oregon and Washington. Its Steady Metabolic program prescribes GLP-1 medication inside a perimenopause and menopause hormone-and-metabolic framework rather than as a standalone weight-loss drug. Membership is $149/month, and the medication is billed separately from about $110/month, so most members pay around $259 a month in total.
