The nurse is preparing to discharge a client newly prescribed a progestin-only pill (POP) for contraceptive prevention. Which contraindication associated with POP should the nurse alert the healthcare provider?
Correct answer
A
Rationale
A BMI of 40 may reduce POP efficacy due to altered hormone metabolism, requiring provider consultation. Non-conception plans align with POP use, night sweats and ginger are not contraindications.
