Infertility Questions and Answers Questions
Question 1 of 5
A couple has just seen a genetic specialist regarding genetic anomalies of their infant. The specialist has ordered a karyotype to be performed. What should the nurse inform the couple about karyotyping?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Rationale: 1. Karyotyping involves analyzing an individual's chromosomes to identify any abnormalities. 2. It provides information about the number and structure of chromosomes, which can indicate genetic disorders. 3. This information is crucial for diagnosing genetic conditions and predicting possible health outcomes. 4. Options A, B, and D are incorrect as karyotyping does not assess growth, development, or physical deformities directly.
Question 2 of 5
Chromosome analysis is a diagnostic test that should be offered to which couple?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Rationale: Choice C is correct because chromosome analysis is recommended for couples who have experienced repeated pregnancy losses to identify any genetic abnormalities that may be causing the miscarriages. This test can help determine if there are chromosomal issues that could be addressed in future pregnancies. Choices A, B, and D do not necessarily warrant chromosome analysis as they do not directly relate to the potential genetic causes of pregnancy losses.
Question 3 of 5
What is a typical characteristic of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) affecting fertility?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Increased androgen levels. In PCOS, there is often an imbalance in hormone levels, including increased androgens like testosterone. This can disrupt normal ovulation and affect fertility. Regular ovulation (choice A) is typically not seen in PCOS. Reduced ovarian size (choice C) is not a typical characteristic, as ovaries can actually be enlarged in PCOS due to multiple small cysts. High levels of estrogen throughout the cycle (choice D) is not a defining feature of PCOS, as estrogen levels can vary in affected individuals. Ultimately, the increased androgen levels in PCOS are a key factor contributing to fertility issues in affected individuals.
