In celebration of National Wellness Month, the Fertility Institute of Hawaii hosted a special Facebook livestream on August 25th, 2024, where Dr. John Frattarelli and Dr. Anatte Karmon discussed the importance of wellness and how it relates to fertility. The doctors emphasized how maintaining personal wellness is essential for optimizing fertility and preserving reproductive health. They also gave a special shoutout to FIH’s Fertility Wellness Program, designed to provide individuals and couples with the knowledge, support, and resources needed to take control of their fertility journey.
During the live stream, the doctors cover various topics. These include stress management, and how even placebo methods can help to calm you down, why having a healthy diet can be good but shouldn’t prevent you from coming in if you’re working on it, and the importance of maintaining a healthy body mass index (BMI). They also answer commonly asked questions from patients, offering practical advice and tips to support overall well-being.
Our team is dedicated to empowering patients with the tools they need to make informed decisions about their reproductive health.

We are so excited to be back with the first ‘Ask the Docs’ of 2024! March is National Endometriosis Awareness Month and several of our doctors at the Fertility Institute of Hawaii took the opportunity to share a plethora of information on the topic. Drs. Frattarelli and Goulet spent the afternoon of March 26th, 2024 discussing what endometriosis is, how it can affect the body, its relationship to fertility, and much more. With years of experience treating patients with this condition, the physicians at FIH are very familiar with endometriosis and answered the most common questions that they receive.
Endometriosis is a condition where endometrial tissue grows outside of the uterus and into other parts of the body. When it begins to grow in areas such as the fallopian tubes or on top of the ovaries, it can cause bleeding in those areas during the menstrual cycle. It is estimated that nearly one-third of women who present with infertility might have endometriosis.
