Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
The client should insert the full dosage of medication at bedtime. The nurse should instruct the client to continue the treatment during menses. The client should refrain from sexual intercourse during treatment instead of using a water-soluble lubricant for sexual intercourse. The client should avoid tub baths and swimming in pools to prevent the spread of infection to others.
