Female Reproductive Disorders NCLEX Questions Questions
Extract:
Question 1 of 5
The female client diagnosed with human papillomavirus (HPV) asks the nurse, 'What other problems can HPV lead to?' Which statement is the most appropriate response by the nurse?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: HPV is a major cause of cervical cancer, a critical complication to highlight. Transmission mode is irrelevant, ovarian issues are unrelated, and Pap smears detect, not prevent, issues.
Question 2 of 5
The client diagnosed with ovarian cancer is prescribed radiation therapy for regional control of the disease. Which statement indicates the client requires further teaching?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Nausea from radiation can be managed with antiemetics; this statement indicates a misconception. Preserving marks, daily treatments, and nutritional shakes are correct.
Question 3 of 5
The client states that she examines her breasts in the shower and while lying down. The nurse recommends that the client should also inspect her breasts from which position?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Standing before a mirror allows the client to visually inspect both breasts for changes in size, shape, or skin texture, which is a key component of breast self-examination (BSE).
Question 4 of 5
The nurse is discharging a client diagnosed with pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). Which statement by the client indicates an understanding of the discharge instructions?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Condom use by an infectious partner prevents PID reinfection. Pain post-intercourse is abnormal, douching increases PID risk, and exams every 2 years are insufficient.
Question 5 of 5
The client who is four (4) months pregnant finds a lump in her breast and the biopsy is positive for Stage II cancer of the breast. Which treatment should the nurse anticipate the HCP recommending to the client?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: In pregnancy, chemotherapy is often used for Stage II breast cancer after the first trimester to control disease while minimizing fetal risk. Lumpectomy or mastectomy is delayed until after delivery, and radiation is avoided during pregnancy.
