Thyroid plus sex-hormone review for psychiatric symptoms
Brain fog has a differential: sleep apnea, ADHD, depression, B12, thyroid, estradiol fluctuation.
What Women's Hormone Therapy actually includes
Top-rated language is ignored. Risk counseling is the product.
Low estrogen is a lab and a syndrome, not a marketing category.
Clinical FAQ
What is PMDD?
A DSM-5-TR diagnosis with symptoms in the luteal phase that remit after menses. Timing matters.
Will you check thyroid?
Yes when the history fits. Fatigue and mood are not 'just estrogen' by default.
Are you a gynecologist?
No. Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC is a PMHNP-BC providing hormone-informed psychiatric care.
Is this anti-aging?
No.
Do you prescribe HRT?
When indicated after history, labs, and risk counseling, and often in coordination with GYN. This is not a pellet mill.
Do you treat postpartum depression?
We evaluate and treat. Postpartum psychosis is an emergency.
Is Cooper City close to your office?
Very close — our Hollywood office at 7603 Davie Road Extension is about 10 minutes from Cooper City via Stirling Road or Griffin Road.
Do you work with families?
Yes. We provide psychiatric evaluations and medication management for adults, and can coordinate care with family therapists for a comprehensive approach.

Lactation and mood meds were never reconciled.
