A young woman says she needs a temporary contraceptive but has a latex allergy. She mentions that she has had a papillomavirus infection. Also, she says she is terrible about remembering to take pills. Which method should the nurse recommend?

transdermal contraception The fact that this woman has a latex allergy rules out the cervical cap and diaphragm.

CycleBeads

CycleBeads is a natural fertility awareness method in which a woman uses a special circle of beads that helps her predict fertile days so that she can abstain from sex on those days. This method meets all of the requirements of the couple. Lactation amenorrhea is a natural method, but it would not apply in this situation, as the woman is not currently breastfeeding. Coitus interruptus is also a natural method, but it is not a fertility awareness method. Vasectomy is a surgical procedure that results in permanent sterility. As the couple would like to have children in the future, this method would not be appropriate.

A client received a scheduled dose of depot medroxyprogesterone acetate (DMPA) 6 weeks ago. Today, the client reports that a regular menstrual cycle is 2 weeks late. What is the first thing that should be done for this client?

Perform a pregnancy test. Because the client is receiving a contraceptive that could cause amenorrhea, and the client's menstrual cycle is 2 weeks late, the first thing that should be done is a pregnancy test to determine if the client is pregnant. The results of this test will determine the next course of action. Depot medroxyprogesterone acetate (DMPA) is a pregnancy category X medication, which means it should not be administered to someone who is pregnant. It is unclear if the client was already pregnant when the last dose was provided 6 weeks prior to the current situation. It is premature to provide prenatal counseling. Depending on the results of the pregnancy test, the nurse may need to explain side effects of the contraceptive, which include amenorrhea.

contraceptive sponge

A woman is 40 years old and a heavy smoker. She has a single sexual partner but has very irregular menstrual cycles. She wants a highly reliable contraceptive. Which method would be the best recommendation?

a diaphragm and spermicide Women over 40 who smoke should not take ovulation suppressants; irregular menstrual cycles make natural methods difficult; women over 40 may have vaginal dryness, so a spermicidal suppository would not be activated.

progestin-only contraceptive pill (mini-pill)
