Clinical FAQ
Is bioidentical safer?
Bioidentical describes structure. Risk depends on dose, route, and your history — not the marketing word.
Can I refuse HRT?
Yes.
Do you prescribe HRT?
When indicated after history, labs, and risk counseling, and often in coordination with GYN. This is not a pellet mill.
How close is the office?
About 12 minutes from Pembroke Pines.
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.
How close are you to Pembroke Pines?
Our Hollywood office is approximately 10 minutes from central Pembroke Pines via Pines Boulevard or Sheridan Street. We also offer telehealth for maximum convenience.
Do you serve Century Village Pembroke Pines?
Yes, we serve many patients from Century Village and specialize in age-related mood changes, medication management for seniors, and hormone therapy.
