A woman has chosen the calendar method of conception control. Which is the most important action the nurse should perform during the assessment process in preparation to discuss the implementation of this method?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The calendar method relies on accurately recorded menstrual cycle lengths to determine the fertile period; therefore, obtaining a history of the woman's menstrual cycles is essential. Weight gain or loss, integumentary changes, and previous experiences, while potentially relevant, are not as critical for implementing this method.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Taking one pill at the same time each day ensures consistent hormone levels, enhancing contraceptive effectiveness. Missing pills or inconsistent timing can reduce efficacy. Antibiotics do not strongly affect oral contraceptives, and throwing away the pack is unnecessary unless multiple pills are missed.
