If you want to find out if your insurance will cover the testing, you will need ICD codes (diagnostic codes) when you call. these codes are: ICD Codes: 253.2; 244.9; 257.2; 285.9

These codes express the "need" for the testing.

Gyno is always medical reason to get them done. Light or heavy. Worked for me. And yeah, jsut say you smoked alot of pot as a kid and want to make sure your nuts are okay. Sex drive is low. Yadda yadda.

Just curious, would a female need the same blood workup?

I think for anyone concerned about their health should get tested regulary for all the body functions. Testosterone levels are one of those things that are important. At the same time you should consider liver and other organ functions as well. I'm not sure what the difference in price is between testing for testosterone levels and testing for everything, but if they are the same or the insurance company is footing the bill why not get everything analyzed?
