E28.39 is a billable diagnosis code used to specify a medical diagnosis of other primary ovarian failure. The code is valid during the current fiscal year for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions from October 01, 2023 through September 30, 2024.

This code is applicable to female patients only. It is clinically and virtually impossible to use this code on a non-female patient.

Clinical Information

  • Eunuchism

    the state of being a eunuch, a male without testes or whose testes failed to develop. it is characterized by the lack of mature male germ cells and testicular hormones.
  • Hypogonadism

    condition resulting from deficient gonadal functions, such as gametogenesis and the production of gonadal steroid hormones. it is characterized by delay in growth, germ cell maturation, and development of secondary sex characteristics. hypogonadism can be due to a deficiency of gonadotropins (hypogonadotropic hypogonadism) or due to primary gonadal failure (hypergonadotropic hypogonadism).
  • Kallmann Syndrome

    a genetically heterogeneous disorder caused by hypothalamic gnrh deficiency and olfactory nerve defects. it is characterized by congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism and anosmia, possibly with additional midline defects. it can be transmitted as an x-linked (genetic diseases, x-linked), an autosomal dominant, or an autosomal recessive trait.
  • Spinocerebellar Degenerations

    a heterogenous group of degenerative syndromes marked by progressive cerebellar dysfunction either in isolation or combined with other neurologic manifestations. sporadic and inherited subtypes occur. inheritance patterns include autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, and x-linked.
  • Prune Belly Syndrome

    a syndrome characterized by abdominal wall musculature deficiency, cryptorchism, and urinary tract abnormalities. the syndrome derives its name from its characteristic distended abdomen with wrinkled skin.

Patient Education


Ovarian Disorders

The ovaries are part of the female reproductive system. Women have two ovaries, one on each side of the uterus. Each ovary is about the size and shape of an almond.

The ovaries produce and store a woman's eggs. During ovulation, an ovary releases an egg. If that egg is fertilized by a sperm, a pregnancy can occur. Ovaries also make the female hormones estrogen and progesterone. When a woman goes through menopause, her ovaries stop making those hormones and releasing eggs.

Problems with the ovaries include:

  • Ovarian cancer
  • Ovarian cysts and polycystic ovary syndrome
  • Primary ovarian insufficiency
  • Ovarian torsion, a twisting of the ovary

Footnotes

[1] Chronic - a chronic condition code indicates a condition lasting 12 months or longer and its effect on the patient based on one or both of the following criteria:

  • The condition results in the need for ongoing intervention with medical products,treatment, services, and special equipment
