The nurse is preparing to discharge a client newly prescribed a progestin-only pill (POP) for contraceptive prevention. Which contraindication associated with POP would the nurse alert the healthcare provider?
The client has a BMI of >30
The client is currently taking Ginger
The client has a history of hypertension
The client has no intention of conceiving within the year
The Correct Answer is C
A. A BMI greater than 30 is a consideration, but it is not an absolute contraindication for the use of POPs.
B. Ginger does not interact adversely with progestin-only pills and is not a contraindication.
C. A history of hypertension can increase the risk of cardiovascular events, and while POPs are generally safer than combined hormonal contraceptives for women with hypertension, it should still be monitored and reported to the healthcare provider.
D. Having no intention of conceiving is not a contraindication; in fact, it is a common reason for using contraceptive methods like POPs.

Correct Answer is B
Explanation
A. Diarrhea is not a direct risk of stopping TPN abruptly.
B. Abruptly stopping TPN can cause hypoglycemia because the high glucose content in TPN leads to increased insulin production. Without the continuous glucose infusion, blood sugar levels can drop rapidly.
C. Hypovolemia is not a common outcome from stopping TPN suddenly.
D. Erythema at the site is unrelated to the cessation of TPN and more commonly related to local site reactions or infection.
