Pain and other conditions associated with female genital organs and menstrual cycle
Chapter 14:Diseases of the genitourinary system
ICD-10 N94 is a billable code used to indicate a diagnosis of pain and other conditions associated with female genital organs and menstrual cycle.
The N94 code encompasses a range of conditions related to pain and other disorders affecting female genital organs and the menstrual cycle. This includes dysmenorrhea (painful menstruation), premenstrual syndrome (PMS), and other menstrual irregularities. It also covers menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes, mood changes, and vaginal dryness, which can significantly impact a woman's quality of life. Additionally, this code addresses issues related to female infertility, including anovulation and hormonal imbalances, as well as complications arising from artificial fertilization techniques. Accurate coding requires a thorough understanding of the patient's symptoms, history, and any relevant diagnostic findings, as these factors can influence treatment options and outcomes. The complexity of these conditions often necessitates a multidisciplinary approach, involving gynecologists, endocrinologists, and mental health professionals to provide comprehensive care.
