Plantation FAQs for Women's Hormone Therapy
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 leftover affordable URLs mean cheap estrogen?
No.
Can progesterone worsen mood?
Yes in some patients. Tell us; we change the plan.
Are you a gynecologist?
No. Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC is a PMHNP-BC providing hormone-informed psychiatric care.
Crisis?
988 or ER. Especially for postpartum psychosis.
Can I refuse HRT?
Yes.
How long is the drive from Plantation?
Our Hollywood office is approximately 15-20 minutes from Plantation via 595 or Broward Boulevard. Telehealth is also available for follow-up appointments.
Do you take a functional approach to psychiatry?
Yes. Beyond traditional medication management, we investigate root causes including hormone levels, thyroid function, and nutritional deficiencies — an approach Plantation patients particularly value.
Book Women's Hormone Therapy
Start with one thorough Women's Hormone Therapy evaluation rather than a series of 15-minute check-ins. Book at (888) 307-2199 or online.
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.
