Perimenopause psychiatry serving Broward County
We order labs when the history of PMDD hormone treatment suggests endocrine contribution. We do not diagnose menopause from a mood adjective.
Clinical scope of Women's Hormone Therapy in Broward County
Progesterone therapy can help some sleep/anxiety pictures and worsen others — that is why follow-up exists.
Postpartum hormone therapy is not a substitute for postpartum depression/psychosis protocols.
Protocol elements we do not skip
Refer DEXA when premature estrogen loss.
Postpartum: screen for psychosis.
Do not exceed physiologic replacement as a mood experiment.
Pregnancy test when relevant before hormones.
Questions we hear about Women's Hormone Therapy
Can HRT replace my antidepressant?
Sometimes mood improves when sleep and vasomotor symptoms improve. Sometimes you still need a psychotropic. We do not promise a swap.
Do you do pellets?
We do not run a pellet-first model. If a GYN uses them, we still require a psychiatric formulation.
What labs?
Individualized: estradiol, progesterone, FSH, TSH, ferritin, vitamin D as indicated.
How close is the office?
About 12 minutes from Davie.
Are you a gynecologist?
No. Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC is a PMHNP-BC providing hormone-informed psychiatric care.
Will you check thyroid?
Yes when the history fits. Fatigue and mood are not 'just estrogen' by default.
How far are you from NSU?
Our Hollywood office is approximately 10 minutes from Nova Southeastern University's main campus, making us a convenient option for students seeking psychiatric care.
Do you treat college students from Davie?
Absolutely. We work with many college-age patients on ADHD management, anxiety, depression, and adjustment disorders common in academic settings.

If you already have records from another psychiatrist, NP, or therapist, send them before Women's Hormone Therapy so the interview can start from data instead of from a blank page.
