XV: Pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium

O94-O99: Other obstetric conditions, not elsewhere classified

The category of "Other obstetric conditions, not elsewhere classified" encompasses various conditions related to pregnancy that do not fall neatly into other categories. These conditions have various causes and may affect any system of the body, although they particularly involve the reproductive system. They may arise from complications during pregnancy, childbirth, or the postnatal period. Symptoms can vary widely, but typically they directly relate to pregnancy and can range from minor discomfort to severe pain or other serious symptoms. Commonly, these conditions could alter the normal progression of pregnancy or postnatal recovery. Some of these conditions might be related to previous obstetric history, while others might be unforeseen complications. This diverse group of conditions underscores the complexity and variability of medical issues that can arise during this significant physiological period.
