Question 1 of 5
An elderly woman is diagnosed with pelvic relaxation disorder secondary to age-related changes. Which medication should the nurse expect to administer?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Estrogen strengthens pelvic tissues in postmenopausal women with pelvic relaxation. Cervidil and Pitocin are for labor, and progesterone is less effective for this condition.
Question 2 of 5
The nurse is assessing a 34-year-old female client with fibrocystic breasts. Which question should the nurse ask the client during the assessment?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Fibrocystic breast changes cause cyclical tenderness, worse premenstrually; this question assesses symptoms. Chocolate allergies, feelings, and prophylactic mastectomy are irrelevant.
Question 3 of 5
If the client asks about long-term consequences that are associated with this disorder, the nurse accurately identifies which consequence?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Pelvic inflammatory disease can cause scarring of the fallopian tubes, leading to infertility or difficulty conceiving.
Question 4 of 5
Before the client leaves the office, on which topic should the nurse provide teaching?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Tattoos and piercings increase infection risk, so teaching about safe sex practices is critical to prevent sexually transmitted infections and maintain reproductive health.
