Sleep, vasomotor symptoms, and mood as one timeline
Estrogen and progesterone affect serotonin and sleep architecture. That is physiology, not a guarantee that HRT will replace an antidepressant.
What Women's Hormone Therapy actually includes
Postpartum hormone therapy is not a substitute for postpartum depression/psychosis protocols.
Hormone therapy for women with psychiatric symptoms needs both skill sets in one formulation.

Questions we hear about Women's Hormone Therapy
Can progesterone worsen mood?
Yes in some patients. Tell us; we change the plan.
What is PMDD?
A DSM-5-TR diagnosis with symptoms in the luteal phase that remit after menses. Timing matters.
How close is the office?
About 36 minutes from Hillsboro Beach.
Can I refuse HRT?
Yes.
Do you help with libido?
We evaluate causes, including SSRI effects and endocrine factors. No guaranteed outcome.
Crisis?
988 or ER. Especially for postpartum psychosis.
Can I do all appointments via telehealth?
After an initial evaluation (which we recommend in-person for the most thorough assessment), most follow-up appointments can be conducted via our secure telehealth platform.
How do you ensure privacy?
All appointments and records are HIPAA-compliant. Telehealth sessions use encrypted video, and we never share patient information without explicit consent.
What we rule in — and rule out
Patients who want a second opinion on a pellet clinic plan.
Contraindication counseling itself can be the visit goal.
Thyroid disease as a co-indication for labs, not a DIY HRT start.
Surgical menopause with mood destabilization.

Florida telehealth psychiatry is available to established and new patients located in Florida at the time of the visit, subject to licensure and clinical appropriateness. An in-person evaluation at the Hollywood office may be recommended when a physical exam, vital signs, or a more complete diagnostic interview is needed.
