Question 1 of 5

A nurse is providing teaching to a client who has had a total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy for uterine cancer. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include in the teaching?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Artificial lubrication can be used to treat vaginal itching and dryness. The rationale for this is that after a total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, there is a decrease in estrogen levels, leading to vaginal dryness and itching. Using artificial lubrication can help alleviate these symptoms and improve comfort.


Choice B is incorrect as there is no need to avoid sexual activity for 6 months unless specifically advised by the healthcare provider.
Choice C is incorrect as there should not be vaginal bleeding after a total abdominal hysterectomy.
Choice D is incorrect as using a diaphragm for contraception is not recommended after a hysterectomy.
