Question 1 of 5
A nurse is teaching a client about oral contraceptive. Which of the following information should the nurse include in the teaching?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Some herbal supplements can decrease the effectiveness of an oral contraceptive. The nurse should include this information in the teaching to ensure the client understands potential interactions. Herbal supplements like St. John's Wort can reduce the effectiveness of oral contraceptives by increasing their metabolism. This can lead to contraceptive failure and unintended pregnancy. Option A is incorrect because abdominal pain is not an expected adverse effect of oral contraceptives. Option B is incorrect as fertility typically returns quickly after stopping oral contraceptives, not taking up to a year. Option D is incorrect as a pelvic examination is not always necessary before starting oral contraceptives.
