E29. 1 - Testicular hypofunction. ICD-10-CM.
Testicular hypofunction from the age of puberty onward may lead to testosterone deficiency, infertility, or both. Such hypofunction may be primary in the testes (primary hypogonadism) or secondary to deficiency of pituitary gonadotropic hormones (secondary hypogonadism).
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM Z79. 890 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of Z79.
Hypogonadism in a man refers to a decrease in one or both of the two major functions of the testes: sperm production and testosterone production. These abnormalities usually result from disease of the testes (primary hypogonadism) or disease of the pituitary or hypothalamus (secondary hypogonadism).
Testicular failure, also known as primary hypogonadism, is an uncommon condition that is characterized by the inability of the testicles to produce sperm and the male hormone testosterone. The are many factors that have been postulated as causes of the condition, which give rise to a wide array of signs and symptoms.
An early morning total serum testosterone level of less than 300 ng/dL clearly indicates hypogonadism, and under most circumstances benefit will be derived from testosterone replacement therapy.
Testosterone testing is used to evaluate androgen excess or deficiency related to gonadal function, adrenal function, or tumor activity. Testosterone levels may be helpful in men for the diagnosis of hypogonadism, hypopituitarism, Klinefelter syndrome, and impotence (low values).
Male hypogonadism is a condition in which the body doesn't produce enough of the hormone that plays a key role in masculine growth and development during puberty (testosterone) or enough sperm or both. You can be born with male hypogonadism, or it can develop later in life, often from injury or infection.

What are the causes of hypogonadism? The causes of primary hypogonadism include: autoimmune disorders, such as Addison's disease and hypoparathyroidism. genetic disorders, such as Turner syndrome and Klinefelter syndrome.
To diagnose hypogonadism, tests may be performed to check hormone levels — estogren in females and testosterone in males. In addition, levels of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormones (FSH) will be tested. LH and FSH are pituitary hormones that are stimulated by the gonads.
Gonadotropin deficiency; Secondary hypogonadism. Hypogonadism is a condition in which the male testes or the female ovaries produce little or no sex hormones. Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (HH) is a form of hypogonadism that is due to a problem with the pituitary gland or hypothalamus.
Pituitary gland and hypothalamus Male hypogonadism means the testicles don't produce enough of the male sex hormone testosterone. There are two basic types of hypogonadism: Primary. This type of hypogonadism — also known as primary testicular failure — originates from a problem in the testicles. Secondary.
The causes of primary hypogonadism include: autoimmune disorders, such as Addison's disease and hypoparathyroidism. genetic disorders, such as Turner syndrome and Klinefelter syndrome. severe infections, especially mumps involving your testicles.
Your provider will test your blood level of testosterone if you have signs or symptoms of hypogonadism. Because testosterone levels vary and are generally highest in the morning, blood testing is usually done early in the day, before 10 a.m., possibly on more than one day.
Hypogonadism is the most common cause for endocrinopathy leading to ED, although the endocrine disorders themselves are some of the rarest of all causes of ED. Most men experience a lowering of their serum testosterone levels with age, but these levels usually are not low enough to induce ED.
