About T38.7X2
T38.7X2 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for poisoning by androgens and anabolic congeners, intentional self-harm. 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 T38.7X (poisoning by, adverse effect of and underdosing of androgens and anabolic congeners), T38.7X2 is specifically for poisoning by androgens and anabolic congeners, intentional self-harm. Related codes cover poisoning by androgens and anabolic congeners, accidental (unintentional) (T38.7X1), poisoning by androgens and anabolic congeners, assault (T38.7X3), poisoning by androgens and anabolic congeners, undetermined (T38.7X4), adverse effect of androgens and anabolic congeners (T38.7X5) and underdosing of androgens and anabolic congeners (T38.7X6).
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.
