d. is commonly associated with the side effect of

Emergency contraception is most effective when used
within 72 hours of intercourse; however, it may be used
with lessened effectiveness 120 hours later. Insertion of
the copper IUD within 5 days of intercourse may also be
used and is up to 99% effective. The most common side
effect of postcoital contraception is nausea.

A physician prescribes clomiphene citrate (Clomid,
Serophene) for a woman experiencing infertility. She is
very concerned about the risk of multiple births. The
nurse's most appropriate response is
a. This is a legitimate concern. Would you like to discuss
this further before your treatment begins?
b. No one has ever had more than triplets with Clomid.
c. Ovulation will be monitored with ultrasound so that this
will not happen.
d. Ten percent is a very low risk, so you don't need to
worry too much. - ANSWER-ANS: A
The incidence of multiple pregnancies with the use of
these medications is significantly increased. The patient's
concern is legitimate and should be discussed so that she
can make an informed decision. Stating that no one has
ever had more than triplets is inaccurate and negates the
patient's concerns. Ultrasound cannot ensure that a
multiple pregnancy will not occur. The percentage quoted
in this statement is inaccurate. The comment don't worry
discredits the patient's concern.

provided to a patient about tubal ligation. What is an
important fact you should point out? (Select all that apply.)

sterilization. You won't be able to get pregnant.
c. Sterilization offers some form of protection against
sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
d. Sterilization offers no protection against STIs.
e. Your menstrual cycle will greatly increase after your
sterilization. - ANSWER-ANS: A, D
A woman is unlikely to become pregnant after tubal
ligation, although it is not 100% effective. Sterilization
offers no protection against STIs. The menstrual cycle
typically remains the same after a tubal ligation.
Practice of the calendar rhythm method is based on the
number of days in each menstrual cycle. The fertile period
is determined after monitoring each cycle for 6 months.
The beginning of the fertile period is estimated by
subtracting 18 days from the longest cycle and 11 days
from the shortest. If the woman's cycles vary in length
