Honeybee (a mail order pharmacy,) has seriously stepped up to support bodily autonomy and provide access to gender affirming medications. Their website ordering system doesn’t include name, pronoun, and gender options, but when you work with Honeybee through QueerDoc, you don’t use that system.
Let’s talk about pricing.
Honeybee doesn’t accept insurance, so you do pay out of pocket for your medications. Honeybee has offered QueerDoc special pricing. Each order has a $21 shipping and processing fee on top of the medication pricing. You can download a price list using the form here:
