JA65.11

ICD-11 MMS 2026-01

Pruritus of pregnancy

Description

Pruritus in pregnancy can usually be attributed to a specific cause such as cholestasis, a pregnancy-specific dermatosis such as pruritic urticarial papules and plaques of pregnancy, or to exacerbation of a preexisting inflammatory dermatosis such as atopic eczema. Not uncommonly, however, a specific cause cannot be identified.
