Correct Answer: B

Waiting 6 weeks before resuming sexual intercourse allows the prostatic fossa to heal, reducing risks of hemorrhage or irritation, a standard guideline post-TURP. Ibuprofen, an NSAID, increases bleeding risk by inhibiting platelet function, contraindicated with fresh surgical sites. Tub bathing with a catheter risks introducing bacteria into the urinary tract, so showers are preferred until removal. Driving after 1 week may be premature recovery varies, and catheter presence or pain could impair safety; typically, 2-4 weeks is advised. The 6-week sexual abstinence instruction aligns with urologic care protocols, promotes safe recovery, and addresses a common patient concern, making it the most appropriate teaching point to ensure long-term outcomes and minimize rehospitalization.
