For the first time in my life, I have hit my deductible AND reached my out-of-pocket maximum. I now have three months of actual free healthcare, which is unheard of in the US. What should I get done?

Biologically male procedures only. EDIT: If the two people who downvoted this question could explain their reasoning, I would be super interested. No judgements. This is a safe space!

My health insurance denied covering my vasectomy so i put it off. Later that year i was in an accident and hit my max out of pocket pretty quick. I called up my doctor and had them resubmit the preauthorization. got it covered at 100%
I'm still pretty pissed that sterilization for women is covered at 100% under my plan but not for men. (It should be both 100% imo)
It goes the opposite way for wanting to reproduce, too. That is, myself and my wife decided we would try to start a family, and she's apparently fine, but something isn't working on my side of things. (Her doc even said "Don't worry about it, men tend to be an easy fix.")
There's a million programs and special coverages and stuff for women's fertility, but all I asked is "Hey can we just diagnose what's wrong with me? I don't want super-swimmer-syrum or something I just wanna know."
They refuse to consider it urology or any kind of "men's health", and keep wanting to rule as "fertility treatment" which conveniently isn't covered.
Men's reproductive rights aren't even on the radar.
