Female Reproductive System NCLEX Questions Questions
Extract:
Question 1 of 5
Which instruction is most appropriate if a Papanicolaou (Pap) smear will be obtained at the time of the pelvic examination?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Douching can wash away cervical cells, leading to inaccurate Pap smear results, so it should be avoided for several days prior to the test.
Question 2 of 5
The client is diagnosed with vulvar cancer. Which are the most common symptoms of cancer of the vulva?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Vulvar itching is the most common symptom of vulvar cancer, often persistent. Red lesions, thin skin, and dryness are less specific or associated with other conditions.
Question 3 of 5
Which statement indicates further instruction is needed for the client with a cystocele?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Cystocele does not preclude sexual intercourse; this statement indicates a misconception needing correction. Sonograms aid diagnosis, Kegels are appropriate, and stress incontinence is a symptom.
Question 4 of 5
The nurse is instructing a two (2)-week postpartum client who has red, tender breasts after trying to breastfeed the infant. Which should the nurse teach the client?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Warm, moist packs relieve engorgement and mastitis discomfort, promoting milk flow. Emptying breasts prevents engorgement but is not the focus, alcohol is harmful, and formula is unnecessary.
Question 5 of 5
When the nurse administers the parenteral form of the antineoplastic drug, which nursing action is best for preventing accidental self-absorption of the drug?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Wearing gloves prevents skin contact with antineoplastic drugs, reducing the risk of absorption and toxicity.
