Aetna considers the following services and procedures medically necessary for the diagnosis and treatment of premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD): - Bilateral oophorectomy for members with severe symptoms when all medical therapy has either failed or produced unacceptable side effects - Gonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonists such as danazol (Danocrine) for members with mastalgia - Gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists such as Lupron (leuprolide acetate) and goserelin (Zoladex) for PMS and PMDD, for women with severe refractory disease who do not respond to or are unable to tolerate SSRIs and oral contraceptives Ask Anthem BCBS why they don't do the same?
