Bioidentical TRT still needs monitoring
Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC will not start testosterone because a website said you have Low T. Morning labs, repeats, and a psychiatric exam come first.

Questions we hear about Men's Testosterone Therapy
Will TRT fix depression?
Only if hypogonadism is a real contributor. Many men need depression treatment with normal T.
Affordable testosterone URL?
Retained slug. Not a mill coupon.
Are you a urologist?
No. PMHNP-BC with hormone-informed psychiatry. We refer when urology is needed.
What about clots and hematocrit?
We monitor hematocrit. High counts need action, not another dose.
Can TRT hurt fertility?
Yes. Exogenous testosterone can suppress sperm production. Tell us if you want children.
Sleep apnea?
We screen. Treating apnea can change T and mood without TRT.
Is your practice discreet for Aventura patients?
Absolutely. We maintain strict HIPAA compliance, and our telehealth option ensures complete privacy. Many Aventura patients prefer virtual appointments from their residence or office.
Do you address image-related anxiety and mood disorders?
Yes. We treat the full spectrum of anxiety and mood disorders, including those related to social pressure, perfectionism, and performance expectations common in high-achieving communities.
