1. A client has obtained Plan B (levonorgestrel 0.75 mg, 2 tablets) as emergency
contraception. After unprotected intercourse, the client calls the clinic to ask questions
about taking the contraceptives. The nurse realizes the client needs further explanation
when she makes which of the following responses?
1. "I can wait 3 to 4 days after intercourse to start taking these to prevent
pregnancy."
2. "My boyfriend can buy Plan B from the pharmacy if he is over 18 years old."
3. "The birth control works by preventing ovulation or fertilization of the egg."
4. "I may feel nauseated and have breast tenderness or a headache after using the
contraceptive." - ANSWER 1. Plan B is a series of contraceptive pills similar in
composition to birth control
pills that have been used for the past 30 years. Plan B is the brand name for
levonorgestrel 0.75 mg. Pills are most effective if taken immediately after unprotected
intercourse and then again 12 hours later. Males can purchase this contraceptive as long
as they are over 18 years of age. Common side effects include nausea, breast
tenderness, vertigo, and stomach pain.

2. An antenatal G 2, T 1, P 0, Ab 0, L 1 client is discussing her postpartum plans
for birth control with her health care provider. In analyzing the available choices, which
of the following factors has the greatest impact on her birth control options?
1. Satisfaction with prior methods.
1
,2. Preference of sexual partner.
3. Breast- or bottle-feeding plan.
4. Desire for another child in 2 years. - ANSWER 3. Birth control plans are influenced
primarily by whether the mother is breast- or
bottle-feeding her infant. The maternal milk supply must be well established prior to the
initiation of most hormonal birth control methods. Low-dose oral contraceptives would
be the exception. Use of estrogen-/progesterone-based pills and progesterone-only pills
are commonly initiated from 4 to 6 weeks postpartum because the milk supply is well
established by this time. Prior experiences with birth control methods have an impact on
the method chosen as do the preferences of the client's partner; however, they are not the
most influential factors. Desire to have another child in two years would make some
methods, such as an IUD, less attractive but would still be secondary to the choice to
breast-feed.
CN: Pharmacological and parenteral therapies; CL: Analyze
3. After the nurse instructs a 20-year-old nulligravid client on how to perform a
breast self-examination, which of the following client statements indicates that the
teaching has been successful?
1. "I should perform breast self-examination on the day my menstrual flow begins."
2. "It's important that I perform breast self-examination on the same day each
month."
3. "If I notice that one of my breasts is much smaller than the other, I shouldn't
worry."
4. "If there is discharge from my nipples, I should call my health care provider." -
ANSWER 4. The nurse determines that the client has understood the instructions
when the
client says that she will notify her primary health care provider if she notices discharge
or bleeding because this may be symptomatic of underlying disease. Ideally, breast
selfexamination
2
, should be performed about 1 week after the onset of menses because
hormonal influences on breast tissue are at a low ebb at this time. The client should
perform breast self-examination on the same day each month only if she has stopped
menstruating (as with menopause). The client's breasts should mirror each other. If one
breast is significantly larger than the other, or if there is "pitting" of breast tissue, a
tumor may be present.
CN: Reduction of risk potential; CL: Evaluate
4. Which of the following would be important to include in the teaching plan for the
client who wants more information on ovulation and fertility management?
1. The ovum survives for 96 hours after ovulation, making conception possible
during this time.
2. The basal body temperature falls at least 0.2°F (0.17°C) after ovulation has
occurred.
3. Ovulation usually occurs on day 14, plus or minus 2 days, before the onset of the
next menstrual cycle.
4. Most women can tell they have ovulated because of severe pain and thick, scant
cervical mucus. - ANSWER 3. For a client with a typical menstrual cycle of 28 days,
ovulation usually occurs
on day 14, plus or minus 2 days, before the onset of the next menstrual cycle. Stated
another way, the menstrual period begins about 2 weeks after ovulation has occurred.
Ovulation does not usually occur during the menses component of the cycle when the
uterine lining is being shed. In most women, the ovum survives for about 12 to 24 hours
after ovulation, during which time conception is possible. The basal body temperature
rises 0.5°F to 1.0°F (0.28°C to 0.56°C) when ovulation occurs. Although some women
experience some pelvic discomfort during ovulation (mittelschmerz), severe or unusual
pain is rare. After ovulation, the cervical mucus is thin and copious.
