Clinical FAQ
Do you help with libido?
We evaluate causes, including SSRI effects and endocrine factors. No guaranteed outcome.
Do you prescribe HRT?
When indicated after history, labs, and risk counseling, and often in coordination with GYN. This is not a pellet mill.
Can progesterone worsen mood?
Yes in some patients. Tell us; we change the plan.
Will you check thyroid?
Yes when the history fits. Fatigue and mood are not 'just estrogen' by default.
Do leftover affordable URLs mean cheap estrogen?
No.
Do you do pellets?
We do not run a pellet-first model. If a GYN uses them, we still require a psychiatric formulation.
Where is your Hollywood office?
Our office is located at 7603 Davie Road Extension, Hollywood, FL 33024. We're easily accessible from I-95, the Turnpike, and US-441.
Do you serve Hollywood Beach residents?
Yes! We serve all Hollywood neighborhoods including Hollywood Beach, Hollywood Hills, Emerald Hills, and surrounding areas.
In-office versus Florida telehealth
Commute noise on I-95 and the Turnpike changes whether an in-office Women's Hormone Therapy visit is realistic this week. Telehealth is used when the clinical exam does not require the office.
Neighborhoods we hear from most in Hollywood include Hollywood Beach, Hollywood Hills, Emerald Hills, and the Davie Road Extension corridor. ZIP codes 33019, 33020, 33021, 33022 map to this service-area page.
Order labs that could change the plan.
Reassess at a short interval because perimenopause is not a static lab value.
Monitoring and safety in Women's Hormone Therapy
No pellet-only practice.
Drug-interaction check with psychotropics.
Lactation: pump/dump or compatible med list.
Postpartum: screen for psychosis.
Indications and differentials
Patients who want a second opinion on a pellet clinic plan.
Surgical menopause with mood destabilization.
Contraindication counseling itself can be the visit goal.
Not indicated when VTE or estrogen-sensitive cancer history blocks estrogen without oncology input.
Next step
Questions about insurance, labs, or whether Women's Hormone Therapy can be done by video: call (888) 307-2199 before you book so the visit type matches the clinical need.
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.

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.
