A )urethral meatus and vaginal orifice.

B) vaginal orifice and vestibular (Bartholin) glands.

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).



An 11-year-old girl is in the clinic for a sports physical. The nurse notices that she has

begun to develop breasts, and during the conversation the girl reveals that she is worried about

her development. The nurse should use which of these techniques to best assist the young girl in

understanding the expected sequence for development? The nurse should:

A)use the Tanner's table on the five stages of sexual development.

B)

describe her development and compare it with that of other girls her age.

C)

use Jacobsen's table on expected development on the basis of height and weight data.

D)

reassure her that her development is within normal limits and should tell her not to

worry about the next step.

ANS: A

Tanner's table on the five stages of pubic hair development is helpful in teaching girls the

expected sequence of sexual development (see Table 26-1). The other responses are not

appropriate.

, A woman who is 8 weeks pregnant is in the clinic for a checkup. The nurse reads on her

chart that her cervix is softened and looks cyanotic. The nurse knows that the woman is

exhibiting _____ sign and _____ sign.

A) Tanner's; Hegar's

B)Hegar's; Goodell's

C)Chadwick's; Hegar's

D)Goodell's; Chadwick's

ANS: D

Shortly after the first missed menstrual period, the female genitalia show signs of the

growing fetus. The cervix softens (Goodell's sign) at 4 to 6 weeks, and the vaginal mucosa and

cervix look cyanotic (Chadwick's sign) at 8 to 12 weeks. These changes occur because of

increased vascularity and edema of the cervix and hypertrophy and hyperplasia of the cervical

glands. Hegar's sign occurs when the isthmus of the uterus softens at 6 to 8 weeks. Tanner's sign

is not a correct response.



A woman who is 22 weeks pregnant has a vaginal infection. She tells the nurse that she is

afraid that this infection will hurt the fetus. The nurse knows that which of these statements is

true?

A)If intercourse is avoided, then the risk for infection is minimal.

B)A thick mucus plug forms that protects the fetus from infection.

C)The acidic pH of vaginal secretions promotes the growth of pathogenic bacteria.

D)The mucus plug that forms in the cervical canal is a good medium for bacterial

growth.

ANS: B

A clot of thick, tenacious mucus forms in the spaces of the cervical canal (the mucus

plug), which protects the fetus from infection. Cervical and vaginal secretions increase during

, pregnancy and are thick, white, and more acidic. The acidic pH keeps pathogenic bacteria from

multiplying in the vagina, but the increase in glycogen increases the risk of candidiasis

(commonly called a yeast infection) during pregnancy.



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

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

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
