Marcia, 68 years old, presents to the gynecology clinic with complaints of painless vaginal bleeding. The nurse should be certain the client is tested for which of the following health problems?

Ovarian cyst
Cervical or uterine cancer
Hormonal imbalances
Endometriosis

Explanation

Answer: B - Because painless vaginal bleeding is often the only symptom of cervical or uterine cancer, this client should be tested for cancer. Choices A and D are not probable given the client's age. Hormonal imbalance (Choice C) may cause bleeding, but is less urgent than the threat of cancer.
