ICD-10 Code E89.40 – Asymptomatic postprocedural ovarian failure (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code E89.40 – Asymptomatic postprocedural ovarian failure
What it is
E89.40 identifies ovarian failure that occurs after a procedure, when the patient has no symptoms documented. Use it when the record specifically states postprocedural ovarian failure and notes it is asymptomatic.
Clinical signs
Clinical features may be absent because this code is for an asymptomatic condition. Check documentation for evidence of ovarian failure after surgery or another procedure; if uncertain, refer to the provider’s wording.
When to use this code
Use E89.40 when the clinician documents asymptomatic ovarian failure as a postoperative or postprocedural complication. It fits cases where the condition is identified in follow-up or problem lists without active symptoms. Code only when the relationship to the procedure is clear.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for ovarian failure that is not linked to a procedure, or when symptoms are present and a different code is documented. Do not guess the cause; check documentation.
Coding tip
Confirm both elements: postprocedural cause and asymptomatic status.
