Correct Answer is D

Explanation

Choice A rationale:

This choice indicates 3 pregnancies, 1 term, 2 preterm, 2 living children, and 3 abortions. However, the client has had 4 pregnancies (twins, a son, and a miscarriage), so this choice is incorrect.

Choice B rationale:

This choice indicates 3 pregnancies, 2 term, 1 preterm, no living children, and 3 abortions. The client has 3 living children (twins and a son), so this choice is incorrect.

Choice C rationale:

This choice indicates 4 pregnancies, 1 term, 1 preterm, 1 living child, and 3 abortions. The client has 3 living children (twins and a son), so this choice is incorrect.

Choice D rationale:

This choice indicates 4 pregnancies, 2 term, 1 preterm, 3 living children, and 1 abortion. This correctly reflects the client’s obstetric history.

A. Bacterial vaginosis. B. Candidiasis. C. Genital herpes simplex. D. Trichomoniasis.

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

Choice A rationale:

Bacterial vaginosis typically presents with a thin, grayish-white discharge with a fishy odor. It does not usually cause intense itching or dyspareunia.

Choice B rationale:

Candidiasis is characterized by a thick, white, cottage cheese-like vaginal discharge, intense itching, and dyspareunia. These symptoms align with the client’s presentation.

Choice C rationale:

Genital herpes simplex usually presents with painful blisters or ulcers in the genital area, not a thick, white discharge.

Choice D rationale:

Trichomoniasis often causes a frothy, yellow-green discharge with a fishy smell. Itching can occur, but the discharge is not typically thick and white.
