Questions we hear about Women's Hormone Therapy
Crisis?
988 or ER. Especially for postpartum psychosis.
Do you prescribe HRT?
When indicated after history, labs, and risk counseling, and often in coordination with GYN. This is not a pellet mill.
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 work with my OB/GYN?
With consent.
Is this anti-aging?
No.
Do leftover affordable URLs mean cheap estrogen?
No.
Do you offer discreet telehealth for Weston patients?
Yes. Many Weston patients prefer our secure HIPAA-compliant telehealth option for appointments from the privacy of their home or office.
Can you help with executive performance and focus issues?
Absolutely. We specialize in ADHD evaluations, cognitive performance optimization, and medication management for adults who need to perform at a high level.
Protocol elements we do not skip
Refer DEXA when premature estrogen loss.
No pellet-only practice.
VTE/migraine/cancer history every start.
Emergency precautions for chest pain/neuro deficits on estrogen.

Crisis now is 988 or the ER — not the booking form. For non-urgent Women's Hormone Therapy, use (888) 307-2199 during weekday hours.
