    In October 2025, I made a one-time purchase of medication from Hims.com. I did not authorize any recurring subscription, automatic refill program, or future shipment beyond that original order. On 3/27/2026, Hims.com charged my credit card $175 and shipped additional medication to me without my authorization or consent. This was not a purchase I placed, approved, or intended to make. I believe Hims.com is engaging in deceptive and unfair business practices. It appears the company may have enrolled me in an automatic medication subscription or refill program without obtaining my clear, informed, and affirmative consent. This conduct is especially troubling because it involves prescription medication, not an ordinary retail product.

    A company should not continue dispensing and shipping prescription treatment without appropriate patient follow-up, confirmation that the patient still wishes to continue treatment, and confirmation that continued use is still appropriate. If a patient had experienced serious side effects, a lack of benefit, or no longer wished to continue treatment, automatically sending additional medication could create significant health and safety risks. This reflects a business model focused on generating revenue rather than protecting patient welfare.

    This practice is also inconsistent with normal pharmacy standards and reasonable consumer expectations. In a typical pharmacy setting, a refill may be prepared, but the patient is informed and chooses whether to pick it up. If the patient does not pick it up, the medication is generally returned and the patient is not charged in this manner. Here, Hims.com unilaterally charged my credit card and shipped medication to me without my permission. I consider this to be an unauthorized charge, and request the following: A full refund of $175 for this unauthorized charge. A prepaid return shipping label so I can return the unopened medication.

    Their website is very misleading. I thought I was signing up for the GLP-1 tablet, and paid for the subscription. Got some seizure medication and diabetes medication with really bad side effects instead. When I asked about this, I was told the GLP-1 tablet wasn't available when I signed up. No refund. Wouldn't even let me apply my payment to their more expensive subscription. Threw away a ton of money for nothing. Buyer beware. Be careful when you are signing up for.

    Hims return policy is anything but customer friendly (it is my contention it is predatory). The autorenewal option is your only choice when initially ordering their products. It is only after you get their first shipment that it becomes possible to "unsubscribe" from their autorenewal option. They understand that by the time you can unsubscribe many people have forgotten that they need to manually go onto their website to unsubscribe, and/or cancel. By then they "gotcha" and have hit your credit card for a second time. Once this has happened, and have shipped a second prescription, they refuse to accept returns, and/or provide refunds. BEWARE! This is a SCAM!.

    Profits over safety. I received a shipment in a brown paper bubble bag. The bag was ripped and the medication bottle was accessible. I was able to easily remove the bottle from the bag and reinsert the bottle back into the bag. The prescription bottle had no safety seal and is not tamper proof so, the bottle could be opened and the pills exposed. I don't know if the pills were replaced or tainted by whomever opened the bag. I informed HIMS and they said they could NOT and would NOT refund or replace the order. This tells me that they care more about PROFITS and do not care about SAFETY. Why would you send medication in a non-tamper proof package? So, now I have purchased a product that is unsafe to consume and HIMS gladly pocketed my payment. THEY ARE ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE.

    I cancelled my subscription in October but yet they decided to process a payment 5 months later without any notification; no text, call or e-mail. I called the next day (they charged my credit card on Sunday) and they stated they cannot cancel it and then hung up. Extremely poor customer service.

    In the Tech uptick of our century there are glitches, errors, etc. With any person facing company, there must be room for this. Getting order updates for shipment but not 48 hours in advance, which is your regulation to change or cancel does nothing to benefit the customer and has been problematic for a few years. Cussing at someone about their character is completely inappropriate, but cussing in frustration to Hims' incompetence and inability to provide basic customer service and being hung up on is next-level unprofessional. The least you can do is ask someone to stop cussing before you just hang up on them. That would be discrimination cause everyone cusses.

    Again, multiple attempts to recover challenges has wasted several hours overall in time on hold because their call timer said 4min for 30min X2 amongst several other calls over the years which were pleasant. The people who helped me in the past would go even as far as to reimbursing me if my order got sent to the wrong address because the system didn't update, but recently, I've had really cringy experiences with their cookie cutter generic customer service and inability to even coordinate a professional call outside of scripting, lololol. 😀 I don't want to talk to fake little robots.That can't understand how frustrating it is when the system doesn't save you, prolonging your order date, and you end up with products you don't need and can't afford. Only selected one star for the actual product itself which plenty other companies out there now, and the previous people who acted somewhat human.

    I am a customer in my 60s and tried this subscription hair-loss service for a short period. The product did not work for me, so I cancelled my subscription in October and believed it was fully terminated.

    On January 27, I received a text stating a renewal order was about to be processed. I immediately logged in and cancelled again before shipment occurred. The order status at that time showed the package was still in the company’s warehouse and had not yet been picked up by USPS.

    Despite cancelling before shipment, the company still charged my credit card. I contacted customer service right away and requested both a refund and that the order be pulled before shipping. They refused. Only after I complained further did they release the package for shipment — but they still denied any refund and would not accept a return, even if unopened. My concerns are about the process, not just the product:

    * Cancellation did not reliably stop renewal billing
    * Charges were processed after cancellation attempts
    * The company would not intercept an unshipped order
    * No grace-period refund window was offered

    * Returns were refused even for unopened product

    Consumers should also be aware that the company is currently under FTC investigation regarding its auto-renewal, cancellation, and refund policies and practices.

    In my experience, these subscription and renewal procedures are not consumer-friendly and place customers at a disadvantage — especially older consumers who rely on cancellation confirmations and order status information.

    I have filed complaints with my card issuer, the BBB, my state consumer office, and federal regulators. I encourage others to read the renewal and cancellation terms very carefully before subscribing.

    Just like the other reviews state. Was charged all the money up front without being able to verify it was actually going to work. Then the no refund policy, which is vague at best. 3 months into the “testosterone treatment” and it’s not working, having even worse symptoms. The labs showed that my estrogen levels had escalated so much that it was cancelling out any T gains. When asked about it they tried to push a higher dose but that would only push more estrogen. When I confronted them about it they mentioned the treatment wasn’t right for me…. When I asked about a refund they said no refunds. So basically out $900 for worse symptoms. Do yourself a favor and just get injections and skip the headache.

    I was sent the pills for hair growth and started taking them as instructed. Shortly after, I began experiencing one of the first effects they warn you about: rapid shedding. According to them, this is supposed to happen because the “bad” hair is being shed, so new, stronger hair can grow in its place. After about a month of taking the pills, I started having frequent headaches. At first, I didn’t think much of it and assumed it could be caused by stress, long hours on the computer, bad posture, or even a bad move at the gym. However, the headaches continued for several weeks, so I decided to stop taking the pills. After a couple of days, the headaches completely went away and stayed gone for about a week.

    To confirm whether the pills were the cause, I started taking them again. Sure enough, the headaches came back, so I stopped the treatment permanently. Around the same time, I received a survey from Hims asking how the treatment was going, whether it was working, and if I was experiencing any side effects. I honestly reported both the shedding and the headaches, and they advised me to stop the treatment immediately. Someone then contacted me regarding my responses and asked if I would like to try the spray instead. I said I would consider it, but only if I did not have to pay again, since I had already paid a significant amount for a five-month supply of the pills.

    The next message I received was from a “licensed nurse practitioner” stating that the spray had been prescribed and shipped. I replied immediately, saying that I did not approve the purchase. The next day, I saw a charge on my credit card. I contacted them again, clearly stating that I did not consent to buying another treatment and should not have been charged.

    Their response was that since the product had already been shipped, there was nothing they could do. After several back-and-forth messages trying to return the spray, I kept receiving the same response over and over, with no real solution offered. At that point, it became clear that their priority is selling, not the customer. Whether the product works or not doesn’t seem to matter. Whether it causes headaches or other side effects doesn’t seem to matter either. And as for the “licensed nurse practitioner” — how am I supposed to verify that this person is real and not just a customer service or sales representative using a title? Overall, a terrible experience. Be careful — they will do or say whatever they need to do to take your money.

    By design their technology does not let you change or cancel a prescription that they write without consulting with you first. They wrote the wrong prescription and then I was unable to cancel it and they charged me over $1,000 which I'm now trying to get refunded. They are hardly responsive and when they are they clearly want to keep my money and not fix it. I thought this would be a simple straightforward experience and it turned out to be horrible mismanaged scam artists.

    Original Review: Dec. 30, 2025

    I bought a 6 month supply of Hims for hair growth. The product did not have the results it promised. I did not want to sign up for a recurring subscription. If this was listed, it was in fine print and very deceptive. I got an email stating they were sending the product via my subscription. The item had not been shipped out and I called their customer service within 5 minutes of getting the email. I explained they product did not work and has bad side effects. I also explained that I DID NOT sign up for a subscription and it was very deceptive. The customer service person could care less. I did not click a box or state I wanted to have a recurring subscription. This company is deceptive and dishonest. I filed a chargeback with my Amex. Beware of this way they rip you off!

    They have a bad customer service. They put you under auto renewal without your knowledge, or trick you by putting hidden sentence when you press to accept their policy. They refused to return it before I receive the package. And after they telling you that they do not accept the return they will never reply to your messages again. The funny thing they are telling you how to dispose the medicine because they are sure that you do not need it, because I gave them my weight and it's clear that I do not need to lose more weight.

    I would give zero stars. I could get the ED medicine from many other sites. I tried them once in the past for a one-and-done purchase because I had never used ED products before and they actually had customer support way back then. Now, last week, I decided to try it again and was shocked how predatory their business model is now. There is zero customer support. I did some searching and found that they are or were under investigation by the FTC for the exact same thing I ran into. I made an inquiry within minutes of placing an order to make an update and Hims did not answer my question until after the order was en route. That is some BS business model. I will never suggest this company to anyone who of my male friend circles. Hims is an automated pharmacy company that is no better than a sham doctor scribbling prescriptions out of the back door of their station wagon.

    I purchased 12 months of care and product .25-2.5mg available. At the 7 month mark they quit advising me breaking contract and would not renew script at the agreed upon progression of medication. Without saying so for legal matters they insinuated I just self medicate stating “we sent you all the meds” indicating no further care would be provided at the 7 of 12 month mark. When I began to ask questions and express my frustration they cancelled me and terminated communications.

    This company will take your 12 month payment and absolutely unquestionably rob you of your money without any regard, remorse or will to rectify a breach of contract. My bank filed fraud charges and malpractice complaints on my behalf if that expresses to you the truth about this company. If you desire to use them, know if you buy 12 months up front, at 7 months they want you to buy a product twice as expensive just to increase your dose even though you have the medication. Shady company! Shady business! Stay clear!!!!

    If I could leave zero stars I would. I had no idea I was subscribed to a yearly subscription. I simply thought I was on a trial basis and so I saw a transaction of $400 on my card. I immediately reach out to Hims and inquire in cancelling and a refund. Mind you --- the product had not shipped yet. There was no notification of an upcoming charge, and their policy is 48 hours leading up to the charge you can cancel and 'refund'. How do you refund prior to a charge?

    Hims has been the worst service I have used. They will make you pay for 3 months of subscription without really any checks and balances or side effects. They claim to have a "doctor" prescribe but the "doctor" will neither explain anything nor test diagnose your case in any shape or form. They will neither refund nor change your medication unless you'd pay for another three months of prescription.
