Postpartum and perimenopausal mood evaluation
Hot flashes can wreck sleep, which then wrecks mood. We treat the chain, not a single token.
What Women's Hormone Therapy actually includes
Brain fog has a differential; estradiol is one line, not the only line.
Libido workup is medical, not moral.
Sunrise FAQs for Women's Hormone Therapy
What labs?
Individualized: estradiol, progesterone, FSH, TSH, ferritin, vitamin D as indicated.
Can I refuse HRT?
Yes.
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 brain fog always menopause?
No. Sleep, ADHD, depression, B12, and thyroid are on the list.
Do you work with my OB/GYN?
With consent.
Do you prescribe HRT?
When indicated after history, labs, and risk counseling, and often in coordination with GYN. This is not a pellet mill.
Do you accept insurance for Sunrise patients?
Yes, we accept most major insurance plans. Call us at (888) 307-2199 to verify your specific coverage before your first appointment.
Can I get evening or weekend telehealth appointments?
We offer flexible scheduling to accommodate work schedules. Contact our office to discuss available appointment times.
Labs, scales, and follow-up cadence
No pellet-only practice.
Postpartum: screen for psychosis.
Bleeding on HRT = GYN, not 'watch forever.'
VTE/migraine/cancer history every start.
