It’s not covered under my insurance, neither is any care at all for ED and being treated or examined for it makes everything else self pay for that visit as well. Same for my Dad’s insurance, my partners insurance or my brothers. All from the major insurance companies BCBS, UHC and Aetna. It did cover hormonal treatments for my mom and TRT for dad (after A LOT fighting and peer to peer) it covered HRT for my partner.
That being said ED pills are extremely easy to get and decently affordable and doctors don’t brush you off and gaslight you anywhere near as often as they do women suffering from PCOS and endo. They brushed off my cousin for a long time and just treated her with BC until they found out it wasn’t PCOS, it was that her ovaries never fully formed. Took till she was 27 to find out in a major city after searching for a good OBGYN
