Ask the Docs: PCOS & Fertility


On September 27, 2022, Drs. Anatte Karmon and Emily Goulet hosted a Facebook live session entitled: “PCOS & Fertility.”

September is PCOS Awareness Month. Did you know that PCOS affects 1 in 10 women of childbearing age? As leading experts on PCOS, Doctors Anatte Karmon, and Emily Goulet have evaluated and treated many women in Hawaii and elsewhere for Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) associated with infertility. In addition, they have given several invited lectures detailing the current research and treatment options regarding polycystic ovary syndrome.

During this session, the following was discussed:

  • What is PCOS? 
  • A brief history of PCOS 
  • Is PCOS genetic?
  • What are common symptoms of PCOS?
  • How is PCOS diagnosed?
  • What are my treatment options?
  • What types of medicines treat PCOS?
  • Can I still get pregnant if I have PCOS? What are the risks?
  • When would an individual with PCOS need IVF?
