What Women's Hormone Therapy actually includes

Clinical FAQ
Are you a gynecologist?
No. Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC is a PMHNP-BC providing hormone-informed psychiatric care.
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.
What about breast cancer risk?
We discuss it. Personal history may require oncology/GYN before estrogen.
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.
Is bioidentical safer?
Bioidentical describes structure. Risk depends on dose, route, and your history — not the marketing word.
Do you treat older adults from Margate?
Yes. We specialize in mood changes related to aging, medication management for complex cases, and hormone replacement therapy for both men and women experiencing age-related hormonal decline.
What's the best way to reach you from Margate?
Drive time is about 25 minutes via 441 or the Turnpike. Many Margate patients choose telehealth for routine follow-ups and in-person visits for initial evaluations.
