Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Misinformation about normal sex and sexuality is common. Lack of knowledge may affect an individual's sexual adjustment. Once myths have been identified, the nurse can give information to dispel the myth.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
One feature of female sexual interest/arousal disorder relates to inability to maintain physiologic requirements for intercourse. For women, this includes problems with lubrication and swelling. The patient's description does not meet criteria for diagnoses in the distracters.
