About N97
N97 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for female infertility. It belongs to block N80-N98 (noninflammatory disorders of female genital tract) and chapter 14 (diseases of the genitourinary system). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 5 subcodes must be used instead.
To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: N97.0 (associated with anovulation), N97.1 (of tubal origin), N97.2 (of uterine origin), N97.8 (of other origin) and N97.9 (unspecified).
The conditions in its Excludes2 note aren't part of N97, but may be coded alongside it if the patient has both: hypopituitarism (E23.0), Stein-Leventhal syndrome (E28.2) and incompetence of cervix uteri (N88.3).
It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
