On November 29th, 2022, Drs. Frattarelli, Karmon and Goulet hosted a Facebook LIvestream entitled, “Optimizing Male Fertility.

November is men’s health awareness month. Did you know that men can suffer from infertility issues, and that it is not just women? According to ASRM, approximately 40% of couples will have the male as the primary cause or a contributing cause to infertility. Topics that were discussed include the following:

• Male fertility evaluation and the use of a semen analysis, and what the results mean
• Risk factors that affect male fertility include weight, smoking, the use of certain supplements, avoiding extreme heat that can affect scrotal temperature, and the importance of maintaining a healthy diet
• The ability to preserve male fertility and what this means

The Fertility Institute of Hawaii is well-versed in all aspects of infertility. The state-of-the-art lab is able to perform a detailed semen analysis and to assist males in cryopreserving samples when needed.
