NCLEX Questions on Female Reproductive System Questions
Extract:
Question 1 of 5
Which nursing instruction is best to provide to the client with chlamydia to prevent a recurrence of the infection?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Partner testing and treatment prevent reinfection, addressing the primary source of chlamydia transmission.
Question 2 of 5
The nurse is assessing a male client for symptoms of gonorrhea. Which data support the diagnosis?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Gonorrhea in males can be asymptomatic, especially early. Chancre sores indicate syphilis, low CD4 is HIV-related, and testicular pain/edema suggest epididymitis, not gonorrhea.
Question 3 of 5
The client has had a total abdominal hysterectomy for cancer of the uterus. Which discharge instruction should the nurse teach?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Pelvic rest (no intercourse, tampons) prevents complications post-hysterectomy until HCP clearance. HRT is individualized, driving is restricted initially, and bleeding is abnormal.
Question 4 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 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.
