Answer to Question 1

Answer: 2

1. Females who abuse anabolic steroids are apt to have a deepened voice.
2. The nurse suspects anabolic steroid use and would assess for other symptoms of abuse, including shrinking testicles.
3. Males will not have increased hair, but females will.
4. Poor skin turgor is not a symptom of anabolic steroid abuse.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: 2

1. Altered sleep patterns might be the reason for starting the substance abuse.
2. The nurse should assess the client's ability to function on a daily basis and to what level the abuse has affected performance.
3. Since the client is seeking health care the nurse should not confront the client about the abuse in this manner. A statement like this would not build a trusting relationship.
4. Headaches can occur during withdrawal, or could be the reason for the abuse.
