O00-O08: Pregnancy with abortive outcome
O02: Other abnormal products of conception
The group of conditions known as "Other abnormal products of conception" generally refer to a variety of issues related to the development of the pregnancy that isn't categorised as routine. This inclusive category can range from a blighted ovum where the fertilized egg implants into the uterus but an embryo does not develop, to a molar pregnancy where an abnormal growth of cells occur instead of a healthy fetus. These conditions typically arise from problems at the genetic level during fertilization. Common symptoms might include vaginal bleeding, abdominal pain, and in some cases, indications of pregnancy like a positive pregnancy test. Over time, without treatment, the condition might lead to complications and risks for the woman's health, including excessive bleeding and in rare cases, cancer. These conditions primarily affect the reproductive system, but can have an impact on overall health and wellbeing.
