Postpartum and perimenopausal mood evaluation
Bone health claims stay inside what DEXA and endocrine guidelines actually support.
What Women's Hormone Therapy actually includes
Best menopause HRT is the regimen whose risks you understood.
Women's HRT in this clinic is hormone-informed psychiatry, not a med-spa catalog.
From intake to follow-up: Women's Hormone Therapy
Document lactation plans.
Shared decision: HRT, psychotropic, both, or neither.
Review contraindications to estrogen.
Coordinate with GYN/PCP.
Indications and differentials
Not indicated to treat breast cancer.
Patients who want a second opinion on a pellet clinic plan.
Thyroid disease as a co-indication for labs, not a DIY HRT start.
Contraindication counseling itself can be the visit goal.
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.

Access from Lighthouse Point
Lighthouse Point sits in Broward County. County-level resources (crisis lines, hospital ERs, IOP programs) are discussed during Women's Hormone Therapy when a higher level of care is safer than outpatient titration.

Lactation and mood meds were never reconciled.
Book Women's Hormone Therapy
After Women's Hormone Therapy is scheduled, complete intake forms once. Repeating the same history at every visit is what we are trying to avoid.
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.
