What Are Infertility Treatments?
At Modern Urology, we recognize how deeply infertility can affect your life — and we're here to help you find solutions tailored to your needs. Our advanced infertility treatments help men regain confidence and improve reproductive health. Male infertility can stem from various health conditions, including hypogonadism. This hormone imbalance can lead to low testosterone symptoms, such as fatigue, reduced muscle mass, weight gain, and decreased libido. Other hypogonadism symptoms include erectile dysfunction, mood swings, and difficulty concentrating. Urological surgeons and Modern Urology founders Dr. Adam De Fazio and Dr. José Vilaró can help address male hypogonadism, an important part of sexual wellness and overall reproductive health. A consultation at Modern Urology in Miami, FL provides a personalized plan to improve infertility and hormonal health.
What causes infertility?
Infertility can result from factors affecting either partner, but in many cases, male infertility plays a key role. In men, it’s often linked to issues that impact sperm production, function, or delivery. These can include hormonal imbalances, structural blockages, lifestyle habits, or prior medical conditions. Certain environmental exposures, past infections, and even genetic factors may also contribute. Because fertility challenges can be complex, identifying the cause typically involves a thorough evaluation of both partners. Some of the most common causes of male infertility include:
- Low sperm count or motility
- Hormonal or endocrine disorders
- Varicocele (enlarged veins in the scrotum)
- Obstructions or structural abnormalities
- Testicular injury or prior infection
- Medication or toxin exposure
- Chronic stress or poor lifestyle habits
Understanding the root cause helps guide personalized treatment options that can improve fertility outcomes and support your family-building goals.
What Should I Expect from Infertility Treatments?
Treatment begins with a thorough evaluation. This includes blood tests, semen analysis, and imaging studies to identify the cause of infertility. We tailor each treatment to support hormonal balance, improve sperm function, and optimize reproductive potential. Depending on the diagnosis, treatments may include hormone replacement therapy or medications to stimulate hormone production or enhance sperm quality. Lifestyle changes address factors, like diet, exercise, and stress, that may impact reproductive health. Advanced options, like sperm retrieval and varicocele repair, can further enhance fertility.
What Are the Benefits of Infertility Treatments?
Improving infertility involves addressing underlying health issues that impact your daily life. It also supports overall well-being and hormone health. Treatments offer many advantages, including:
- Restored testosterone levels to reduce low testosterone symptoms
- Improved sexual function for better performance and satisfaction
- Enhanced sperm production to increase chances of conception
- More energy and vitality by addressing hypogonadism symptoms
- Better mood and mental clarity by balancing hormones
- Personalized care for long-term reproductive health
Modern Urology Reviews
Tengo la mejor opinión del staff y del dr José Vilaro por el trato tan respetuoso y profesional y los que lean este mensaje les digo que este servicio es excelente,por lo que no duden en asistir al mismo.Gracias.
Very grateful especially to Dr. Vilaro, after 10 years of suffering from pain due to kidney stones, he was the only one who gave the solution to my problem, in addition to being a good professional, he is an incredible human being. May God continue to bless you to give the best to your patients. I rarely recommend someone, this is the exception, I recommend this clinic a thousand times and especially Dr. Vilaro.
I don't typically write reviews on Google, but Dr. Vilaro absolutely deserves an exception, and I only wish I'd done this sooner. From the moment I first saw him, it was clear that he was the embodiment of patience and empathy. He took the time to carefully listen to my symptoms, no matter how abrupt or complex, and made sure I fully understood every possible course of treatment by writing things out and diagramming them. Although my symptoms weren't pathogenic and couldn't be treated immediately, Dr. Vilaro went above and beyond by referring me to the right specialists, who are now providing excellent care. I’m truly grateful for his thoughtful and thorough approach.
Very friendly and professional
Very professional, very good treatment from the front desk to the doctor

Am I a Candidate for Infertility Treatments?
Male infertility treatment may be appropriate for men who have difficulty conceiving with their partner after a year or more of regular, unprotected intercourse. It’s often recommended for those with concerns such as low sperm count, poor motility, or hormonal imbalances. The best candidates are in good overall health and ready to explore diagnostic testing to uncover correctable causes. Men with untreated infections, uncontrolled health conditions, or severe testicular damage may not be eligible for certain therapies. Generally speaking, candidates for male infertility treatment are those who have:
- Low or abnormal sperm count
- Ejaculation or hormone-related issues
- History of testicular injury or infection
- Prior vasectomy or surgery
- Desire to grow their family
Every treatment begins with a consultation to determine which options are safe, appropriate, and most effective for your reproductive health goals.
Does Insurance Cover Infertility Treatments?
Coverage for infertility treatments varies depending on your insurance provider and plan. Some insurance policies may include diagnostic testing, hormonal therapies, or surgical interventions, while others may not cover treatment for infertility at all. It’s important to check with your insurance provider to understand your specific benefits and coverage options. At Modern Urology, our team is happy to guide you through the process and provide detailed information regarding costs and payment plans.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often does male infertility impact conception?
Male factors contribute to infertility in couples struggling to conceive more often than many people realize. Causes range from low sperm count to hormonal imbalances or structural issues. Because these conditions are often treatable, identifying the cause early is key. Our team offers thorough diagnostic testing to pinpoint contributing factors and guide couples toward the most effective path forward.
Can male infertility spontaneously resolve?
In some cases, yes—particularly when infertility stems from reversible factors like recent illness, medication use, or lifestyle habits. Sperm production cycles take about 70–90 days, so improvements can take several months to appear. That said, persistent abnormalities may require targeted therapy. Our team monitors progress over time to determine whether natural recovery or medical intervention will be most effective.
How long after male infertility treatments should we be able to conceive?
It depends on the treatment approach and the underlying cause. Medications or hormonal therapies may take a few months to influence sperm production, while surgical corrections can improve fertility more quickly once healing is complete. Because conception also relies on timing and female fertility factors, those will need to be taken into consideration as well.
What lifestyle changes can improve male fertility?
Lifestyle changes like maintaining a healthy weight, reducing alcohol consumption, quitting smoking, and managing stress can significantly improve fertility. Avoiding heat exposure (e.g., hot tubs) and limiting substances like steroids may also help. Our team at Modern Urology provides personalized recommendations based on your unique situation.
Are there medications that can help with low sperm count?
Yes, certain medications can help address low sperm count when caused by hormonal imbalances or specific medical conditions. Dr. De Fazio and Dr. Vilaró may prescribe hormone therapies or medications to stimulate sperm production. Results typically take a few months to become noticeable as sperm production cycles require time.
Does age affect male fertility?
While men remain fertile longer than women, sperm quality can decline with age. Factors like reduced motility and hormonal changes can impact fertility after age 40. Our staff in Miami, FL, can assess age-related fertility concerns and recommend treatment options.
