Lauderhill FAQs for Women's Hormone Therapy
Do you treat postpartum depression?
We evaluate and treat. Postpartum psychosis is an emergency.
Can I refuse HRT?
Yes.
Is brain fog always menopause?
No. Sleep, ADHD, depression, B12, and thyroid are on the list.
Is bioidentical safer?
Bioidentical describes structure. Risk depends on dose, route, and your history — not the marketing word.
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.
Does Dr. Chatelier understand Caribbean cultural views on mental health?
Yes. Dr. Chatelier is Haitian-American and deeply understands the cultural perspectives on mental health common in Caribbean communities. She provides respectful, culturally aware psychiatric care.
