About coding menstrual migraine
The ICD-10-CM code for menstrual migraine is G43.829 (Menstrual migraine, not intractable, without status migrainosus). The official index lists 12 more specific codes, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on G43.829.
Within G43.82, choose G43.829 (without status migrainosus) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: with status migrainosus (G43.821).
Use an additional code for adverse effect, if applicable, to identify drug (T36-T50 with fifth or sixth character 5).
It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.
