An at-home blood test measures what sits underneath: ten markers across your heart, liver, blood sugar and thyroid. Your clinician builds the plan around what it finds, not the other way round.
Weight is where it starts, not where it ends: excess weight is linked to the conditions that shorten men’s lives.5 HeMed exists to make premium long-term care accessible before the crisis, not after it.
Why is this important?

Check your eligibility
Fill in a short set of online questions so a clinician can check whether treatment may be suitable for you.
Take your blood test
Complete your included needle-free blood test to understand your current health.
Receive your treatment
A clinician reviews your blood test first. If they approve treatment, we deliver it the next working day, discreetly packaged, with delivery included in your plan.
Track your progress in the app. Registered clinicians stay involved, reviewing your care, not just your first form.
A retest every 6 months shows what’s actually changing, so your plan adjusts to your body, not your subscription date. Regular review during treatment is what NICE recommends.6

Short answers to the common questions. For anything else, our support team can help.
Choose from a flexible rolling monthly plan or a 3, 6 or 12-month plan with lower monthly prices. Plans are billed every 28 or 30 days depending on your treatment; your exact cycle is shown before you confirm.
No two people are the same, so we’ve built plans with that in mind. Our 3, 6 or 12-month plans have lower monthly prices and include the same care. If you’d rather keep things flexible while you get started, our rolling monthly plan has no long-term commitment.
We put your health first. If your blood test shows the plan isn’t suitable for you, we explain why and refund your first payment in full. The terms set out when a refund applies.
If you’re on our rolling monthly plan, you can cancel with at least 5 days’ notice before your next payment date. On a 3, 6 or 12-month plan, cancelling early carries a termination fee unless your clinician advises stopping; the exact fee is shown before you confirm. Full details are on our terms and conditions.
Everything you need is in one place. That includes a needle-free blood test every 6 months, starting from day one, to track your metabolic markers, clinical support for side effects and questions, in-app progress tracking, nutrition guidance, diet and exercise advice, and help from clinicians as your body changes throughout your plan.
Your at-home blood test shows your clinician the markers that matter for your plan, so decisions are made on your results, and lets you track changes over time, from cardiovascular to liver markers. NICE recommends identifying the health conditions linked to weight at the start and reviewing regularly during treatment; that is what the baseline test and the retest every 6 months are for.6
No needles, no finger pricks and no clinic visit. We use a needle-free blood collection method you can complete at home in minutes. Your kit is included in your plan, along with everything you need, plus step-by-step support from our team if you have any questions.
Your test covers key health markers including blood sugar (HbA1c), cardiovascular health, liver function and thyroid function. It’s a focused metabolic health check built into your plan.
Keep taking your current treatment as prescribed. A clinician reviews your health information and your current treatment first, and your HeMed plan is confirmed before anything changes.
Your clinician reviews where you are, including your current treatment, and builds your plan from there. What suits you is a clinical decision, made on your results.
The same plan every member gets: your blood tests, clinical support for side effects and questions, in-app progress tracking, nutrition guidance and delivery, in one monthly price.
