302.9
ICD-9-CMThis code represents a broad category for mental health conditions characterized by disturbances in sexual identity, preference, or function that do not meet criteria for more specific psychosexual disorders. It indicates a clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational, or other important areas of functioning related to psychosexual issues.
This code is appropriate when a patient presents with symptoms of a psychosexual disorder, but the specific type of disorder cannot be definitively diagnosed due to insufficient information or atypical presentation. Documentation should clearly indicate a psychosexual disturbance without specifying a more precise diagnosis from the 302.0-302.8 categories.
