Telemedicine Sildenafil – Potential Insurance Consequences

I've used sildenafil from one of the subscription telemedicine providers and I really benefit from it. I don't need it, I function fine without it, but I function way better with it.

My concern is that, despite having no medical diagnosis of an underlying condition causing me to need sildenafil, a health insurance company or a life insurance company might somehow find out that I've been prescribed sildenafil and make the assumption that I have heart disease or diabetes or some other medical condition that sometimes underlies a necessity for this treatment, and either raise my premium in the future or, if I get hit by a bus, deny a life insurance payout. I didn't use insurance to pay and they said they don't have any reason to contact my insurance company.

I know I don't have any medical condition associated with this, sildenafil is just awesome. Do you guys know if this is possible? Their privacy policy just says some nebulous stuff about how they might disclose information "when legally required" and their support staff just refers me to their privacy policy. Should I go get some kind of documented proof at a primary care physician that I don't have any of the possible causal conditions of erectile dysfunction so there's a record somewhere?
