N80-N98: Noninflammatory disorders of female genital tract

Noninflammatory disorders of the female genital tract is a group of conditions that affect the female reproductive system. These disorders can range from disorders of menstruation, like abnormal bleeding or absence of menstrual periods, to conditions such as endometriosis where the tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus, causing pain and possibly infertility. Other conditions can include disorders related to the position of the uterus, such as a twisted or tilted uterus. Frequently, these conditions do not have a clear cause, but do not involve an inflammation or infection. Instead, they may be related to hormonal changes, physical changes in the structure of the reproductive organs, or other unknown factors. Symptoms can vary widely but may include pain, irregular menstrual cycles, or fertility problems. As these are non-inflammatory, these conditions typically present without the classic inflammatory symptoms like warmth, redness, and swelling.
