Document Content and Description Below

1. A client has obtained Plan B (levonorgestrel 0.75 mg, 2 tablets) as emergency contraception. After unprotected intercourse, the client calls the clinic to ask questions about taking the contracep ... tives. The nurse realizes the client needs further explanation when she makes which of the following responses? 1. "I can wait 3 to 4 days after intercourse to start taking these to prevent pregnancy." 2. "My boyfriend can buy Plan B from the pharmacy if he is over 18 years old." 3. "The birth control works by preventing ovulation or fertilization of the egg." 4. "I may feel nauseated and have breast tenderness or a headache after using the contraceptive." Correct Answer 1. Plan B is a series of contraceptive pills similar in composition to birth control pills that have been used for the past 30 years. Plan B is the brand name for levonorgestrel 0.75 mg.

Breast- or bottle-feeding plan. 4. Desire for another child in 2 years. Correct Answer 3. Birth control plans are influenced primarily by whether the mother is breast- or bottle-feeding her infant. The maternal milk supply must be well established prior to the initiation of most hormonal birth control methods. Low-dose oral contraceptives would be the exception. Use of estrogen-/progesterone-based pills and progesterone-only pills are commonly initiated from 4 to 6 weeks postpartum because the milk supply is well established by this time. Prior experiences with birth control methods have an impact on the method chosen as do the preferences of the client's partner; however, they are not the most influential factors. Desire to have another child in two years would make some methods, such as an IUD, less attractive but would still be secondary to the choice to breast-feed.
