Hypertrophy of clitoris

This code represents an abnormal enlargement or overgrowth of the clitoris, a female genital organ. This hypertrophy can range from mild to severe, potentially causing discomfort, functional issues, or cosmetic concerns.

Use this code when documentation clearly indicates a diagnosis of clitoral hypertrophy. This may be observed during a gynecological examination, reported by the patient, or identified as part of a congenital anomaly or endocrine disorder. Supporting documentation should describe the physical findings of an enlarged clitoris.

• Ensure documentation specifies "hypertrophy" and not simply "enlargement" if the latter is a normal variant.
• Investigate underlying causes (e.g., congenital adrenal hyperplasia, androgen excess) and code them additionally if diagnosed.
• Differentiate from clitoral adhesions or other clitoral abnormalities that have distinct codes.
