How does it work to get a prescription?
In order to have a prescription order placed with Winona, you will need to complete our online questionnaire. The health quiz will gather your medical information for our healthcare providers.Then they will need to review your symptoms and medical history. With that information, they will be able to work with you to provide and evaluate your treatment options.
Your provider might follow up with questions that you can respond to using our secure online message portal. Once your provider completes your evaluation, Winona will ship your prescription medications directly to you from our Winona pharmacies.
If your provider determines a prescription is not appropriate for you, they will offer you other options and information about the next steps.

Have more questions? Contact us.Do I need a prescription?
Certain products available through the Winona platform can only be purchased with a prescription from one of our qualified medical providers. To access these products, you must first consult with a Winona provider by using our Winona platform to complete a telehealth visit.
Winona has worked hard to make this process as simple and convenient as possible. Through the Winona patient intake form, your providers will evaluate your specific needs and when appropriate will determine the prescription products that are appropriate for you, and prescribe you individualized treatment plans.
Winona also sells non-prescription products which include over-the-counter (OTC) medications and supplements. These products can be ordered from our website without the need to consult with a medical provider and shipped directly to you from our warehouse.

Have more questions? Contact us.I’d like to try it - how do I sign up for just a trial?
For our prescription products, you can purchase a one-month treatment option rather than a recurring monthly subscription. However, the cost of one month is greater than the monthly subscription rate. Additionally, hormone replacement therapy can sometimes take a month or longer to provide the treatment effects you are looking for. Winona recommends trying the subscription not only to reduce your cost per treatment but to receive the appropriate amount of medication that will help you improve your menopause symptoms.
Our non-prescription, over-the-counter, products are available at monthly rates.

Your personally identifying information, medical history, and ID will never be shared outside of the Winona secure system.

The WinonaRx treatments are prescription medications, which must be handled very carefully and prescribed according to medication regulations in the state and country the patient is located in. Winona specifically works with its own pharmacy and with physicians licensed in the US, so, unfortunately, Winona is unable to treat patients outside of the US at this time. We are hoping to expand to more states very soon.
