A man has been instructed to make an appointment with the laboratory for sperm analysis. Which instruction should the nurse provide?

Correct Answer: B

Question 4 of 5

Cindy, a 36-year-old, has been prescribed Follistim AQ, a follitropin. What information should the nurse include in Cindy's education?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A. Cindy is prescribed Follistim AQ to stimulate the development of ovarian follicles, where eggs or oocytes develop. This medication helps in ovulation induction. The nurse should educate Cindy on the medication's purpose, how it works, and the importance of follicle development in the ovulation process. Choice B is incorrect as Follistim is not a manufactured form of FSH but a specific form of follitropin. Choice C is incorrect as rapid weight gain is not a typical side effect of ovulation induction with Follistim. Choice D is incorrect as the typical side effects of Follistim include ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, abdominal pain, and bloating, not breast tenderness, changes in mood, or depression.

B is incorrect as the procedure is typically scheduled in the early follicular phase. D is incorrect as Tylenol may not be sufficient for managing post-procedure cramping.
