Clinical scope of Women's Hormone Therapy in Broward County
PMDD hormone treatment starts by confirming luteal-phase timing with a symptom diary when possible.
Hot flash care can improve sleep continuity, which then improves daytime mood scores.

Clinical FAQ
Can this be telehealth?
Counseling and some follow-up, if you are in Florida. Procedures and some exams cannot.
Is this anti-aging?
No.
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.
Do you treat postpartum depression?
We evaluate and treat. Postpartum psychosis is an emergency.
Is bioidentical safer?
Bioidentical describes structure. Risk depends on dose, route, and your history — not the marketing word.
What labs?
Individualized: estradiol, progesterone, FSH, TSH, ferritin, vitamin D as indicated.
Do you treat anxiety related to life transitions?
Yes. Life transitions — career changes, relocations, relationship shifts — are common triggers for anxiety and depression. Our evaluations assess these factors and create targeted treatment plans.
How far is Oakland Park from your office?
Our Hollywood office is about 20 minutes from Oakland Park. Telehealth appointments are also available for follow-up medication management visits.
