T38.6X6Underdosing of antigonadotrophins, antiestrogens, antiandrogens, not elsewhere classified

T38.6X6 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for underdosing of antigonadotrophins, antiestrogens, antiandrogens, not elsewhere classified. It belongs to category T38 (poisoning by, adverse effect of and underdosing of hormones and their synthetic substitutes and antagonists, not elsewhere classified), block T36-T50 (poisoning by, adverse effects of and underdosing of drugs, medicaments and biological substances) and chapter 19 (injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 3 subcodes must be used instead.

Within T38.6X (poisoning by, adverse effect of and underdosing of antigonadotrophins, antiestrogens, antiandrogens, not elsewhere classified), T38.6X6 is specifically for underdosing of antigonadotrophins, antiestrogens, antiandrogens, not elsewhere classified. Related codes cover poisoning by antigonadotrophins, antiestrogens, antiandrogens, not elsewhere classified, accidental (unintentional) (T38.6X1), poisoning by antigonadotrophins, antiestrogens, antiandrogens, not elsewhere classified, intentional self-harm (T38.6X2), poisoning by antigonadotrophins, antiestrogens, antiandrogens, not elsewhere classified, assault (T38.6X3), poisoning by antigonadotrophins, antiestrogens, antiandrogens, not elsewhere classified, undetermined (T38.6X4) and adverse effect of antigonadotrophins, antiestrogens, antiandrogens, not elsewhere classified (T38.6X5).

Codes in this range require a 7th character: A for initial encounter, D for subsequent encounter and S for sequela. Use placeholder "X" characters to fill any empty positions before the 7th character.

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
