During a health history, a 22-year old woman asks, "Can I get that vaccine for HPV? I have
genital warts and I'd like them to go away!" What is the nurse's best response?
A)
"The HPV vaccine is for girls and women ages 9 to 26, so we can start that today."
B)
"This vaccine is only for girls who have not started to have intercourse yet."
C)
"Let's check with the physician to see if you are a candidate for this vaccine."
D)
"The vaccine cannot protect you if you already have an HPV infection."
ANS: D
The HPV (human papillomavirus) vaccine is appropriate for girls and women age 9 to 26 and is
given to prevent cervical cancer by preventing HPV infections before girls become sexually
active. However, it cannot protect the woman if an HPV infection is already present.
During an examination the nurse observes a female patient's vestibule and expects to see the:
A)
urethral meatus and vaginal orifice.

C)
urethral meatus and paraurethral (Skene) glands.
D)
paraurethral (Skene) and vestibular (Bartholin) glands.
ANS: A
The labial structures encircle a boat-shaped space, or cleft, termed the vestibule. Within it are
numerous openings. The urethral meatus and vaginal orifice are visible. The ducts of the
paraurethral (Skene) glands and the vestibular (Bartholin) glands are present but not visible.
During a speculum inspection of the vagina, the nurse would expect to see what at the end of the
vaginal canal?
A)
Cervix
B)
Uterus
C)
Ovaries
D)
Fallopian tubes
ANS: A
At the end of the canal, the uterine cervix projects into the vagina

The uterus is usually positioned tilting forward and superior to the bladder. This position is
known as:
A)
anteverted and anteflexed.
B)
retroverted and anteflexed.
C)
retroverted and retroflexed.
D)
superiorverted and anteflexed.
ANS: A
The uterus is freely movable, not fixed, and usually tilts forward and superior to the bladder (a
position labeled as anteverted and anteflexed).
The changes normally associated with menopause occur generally because the cells in the
reproductive tract are:
A)
aging.
B)
becoming fibrous.
C)

estrogen dependent.
D)
able to respond to estrogen.
ANS: C
Because cells in the reproductive tract are estrogen dependent, decreased estrogen levels during
menopause bring dramatic physical changes. The other options are not correct.
The nurse is reviewing the changes that occur with menopause. Which of these are changes
associated with menopause?
A)
Uterine and ovarian atrophy along with thinning vaginal epithelium
B)
Ovarian atrophy, increased vaginal secretions, and increasing clitoral size
C)
Cervical hypertrophy, ovarian atrophy, and increased acidity of vaginal secretions
D)
Vaginal mucosa fragility, increased acidity of vaginal secretions, and uterine hypertrophy
ANS: A
The uterus shrinks because of its decreased myometrium. The ovaries atrophy to 1 to 2 cm and
are not palpable after menopause. The sacral ligaments relax, and the pelvic musculature
weakens, so the uterus droops. The cervix shrinks and looks paler with a thick glistening
epithelium. The vaginal epithelium atrophies, becoming thinner, drier, and itchy. The vaginal pH
becomes more alkaline, and secretions are decreased. This results in a fragile mucosal surface
that is at risk for bleeding and vaginitis.
