Passage / Scenario
A male adolescent during a well check-upWhile obtaining a health history from a male adolescent during a good check-up, the nurse assesses his sexual behavior and risk for sexually transmitted infections. Based on the information, the nurse plans to teach the adolescent about using a condom. What statement would the nurse include in the teaching plan?
Correct answer
Applying a condom before genital contact prevents STI and pregnancy transmission. Wallets damage condoms, petroleum jelly weakens latex, and reusing condoms increases infection risk.
