| Feedback: | ||
| Use of an IUD may be contraindicated for a woman whose uterus is distorted in shape because the device might perforate the uterine wall. The device is not contraindicated for multiple sexual partners, hypertension, or history of thromboembolic disease. Infection is no longer a concern because the vaginal string no longer conducts fluid. The device does not impact hormone levels and will not influence blood pressure or blood flow. | ||

| After a vasectomy, sexual intercourse can resume after 1 week. The procedure can be completed as an outpatient. The patient may experience a small amount of local pain afterward, which can be managed by taking a mild analgesic and applying ice to the site. An additional birth control method should be used until two negative sperm reports at about 6 and 10 weeks have been obtained. Spermatozoa, which were present in the vas deferens at the time of surgery, can remain viable for as long as 6 months. | ||
| 3. | A patient comes into the family planning clinic and requests a prescription for birth control pills. Which assessment finding indicates that an ovulation suppressant would not be the best contraceptive method for the patient? | |
| A) | Age 30 years | |
| B) | Allergy to foreign protein | |
| C) | Irregular menstrual cycles | |
| D) | History of thromboembolism | |
| Ans: | D | |
| Feedback: | ||
| Combination oral contraceptives are not routinely prescribed for patient with a history of thromboembolic disease. The patients’ age would not be a contraindication for this type of contraceptive. An allergy to foreign protein would impact the patient’s ability to use condoms. Irregular menstrual cycles would be an indication for combination oral contraceptives. | ||
| 4. | A female patient has forgotten to take an ovulation suppressant for two mornings in a row. What should the nurse advise the patient to do? | |
| A) | Take two pills a day for the rest of the month. | |
| B) | Take three pills immediately and avoid coitus for the remainder of the month. | |
| C) | Start a new cycle of 21 pills immediately plus additional estrogen for the next 3 days. | |
| D) | Take two pills now and use a second method of contraception for the remainder of the month. | |
| Ans: | D | |
| Feedback: | ||
| If two consecutive active pills are missed, the patient should be advised to take two pills immediately. Then the patient should continue the following day with the usual schedule. Missing two pills may allow ovulation to occur, so an added contraceptive such as a spermicide should be used for the remainder of the month. The patient does not need to take two pills every day for the rest of the month, take three pills and abstain from coitus, or start a new cycle of 21 pills. | ||
