NCLEX Questions on Female Reproductive System Questions
Extract:
Question 1 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.
Question 2 of 5
The nurse is preparing the care plan for a 45-year-old client who has had a radical prostatectomy. Which psychosocial and physiological problem should be included in the plan?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Sexual impotence is a common issue post-radical prostatectomy due to nerve damage, impacting psychosocial and physiological well-being. Coping, hemorrhage, and electrolyte imbalance are less specific.
Question 3 of 5
The nurse correctly informs the client that the breast self-examination (BSE) technique involves palpating each breast moving in small concentric circles, following imaginary spokes in a wheel, or moving in rows from superior to inferior stress of the breast. Besides the breast, which other body area is essential to palpate?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The axillae (armpits) contain lymph nodes that drain the breast, and palpating this area is essential to detect any abnormal lymph node enlargement, which could indicate breast pathology.
Question 4 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 5 of 5
The client diagnosed with cancer of the prostate has been placed on luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) agonist therapy. Which statement indicates the client understands the treatment?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: LHRH agonists cause hot flashes due to hormonal suppression. Sexual dysfunction is common, cure is not guaranteed, and side effects are expected.
