What is Hashimoto's Thyroiditis ICD 10?
ICD 10 code for Hashimoto's Thyroiditis is E06.3. Hashimoto's disease is also referred to as Autoimmune Thyroiditis ICD 10, and Hashimoto ICD 10. It is an autoimmune disorder which affects typically the thyroid gland. In the autoimmune disorders, the immune system typically attacks healthy tissues. In Hashimoto's disease, immune system cells cause the death of the thyroid's hormone-producing cells, which leads to less hormone production, known as hypothyroidism. The primary treatment is thyroid hormone replacement. The immune system creates antibodies that majorly attack thyroid cells considering that they were bacteria, viruses, or other foreign bodies. This incorrect response enlists disease-fighting agents that damage and destroy the thyroid cells. Hashimoto’s thyroiditis is where the body's immune cells attack the thyroid gland.
Causes of Hashimoto's thyroiditis ICD 10 (E06.3):
Hashimoto ICD 10 code is E063. The exact cause of the immune system's attack on thyroid cells is unclear, but the onset of the disease may be related to:
- Genetic factors
- Environmental triggers, such as infections, stress, or radiation exposure
Symptoms for Hashimoto's thyroiditis ICD 10:
- Fatigue and sluggishness
- Increased sensitivity to cold
- Increased sleepiness
- Dry skin
- Constipation
- Muscle weakness
- Muscle aches, tenderness, and stiffness
- Joint pain and stiffness
- Irregular or excessive menstrual bleeding
- Problems with memory or concentration
- Swelling of the thyroid (goiter)
- A puffy face
- Brittle nails
- Hair loss
- Enlargement of the tongue
Diagnostics for Autoimmune Thyroiditis ICD 10:
TSH test:
Measures thyroid-stimulating hormone levels to assess thyroid function.T-4 tests:
Measures thyroxine (T-4) levels to confirm thyroid function abnormalities.
Treatment for Hashimoto ICD 10:
T-4 hormone replacement therapy:
Synthetic hormone levothyroxine to normalize thyroid hormone levels and manage hypothyroidism.
