ICD-10 Code F65.2 – Exhibitionism (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code F65.2 – Exhibitionism
What it is
F65.2 identifies exhibitionism, a disorder involving recurrent urges, fantasies, or acts of exposing one’s genitals to an unsuspecting person. Use this code when the behavior is clinically documented as a sexual disorder.
Clinical signs
Typical documentation includes repeated exposure behavior, sexual arousal from the act, and distress or impairment. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.
When to use this code
Use F65.2 when the record clearly states exhibitionism or describes persistent genital exposure as the primary diagnosis. You may also use it when the clinician documents associated distress, impairment, or recurrent behavior meeting diagnostic criteria.
Check documentation if the event appears isolated, situational, or related to another mental health condition, because the code should reflect the specific disorder recorded by the provider.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for accidental exposure, indecent exposure without a documented psychiatric diagnosis, or other paraphilic disorders. Check documentation when the behavior is better explained by intoxication, psychosis, or another condition.
Coding tip
Code F65.2 only when the provider documents exhibitionism as a diagnosis, not merely a legal or behavioral description.
