A newly married woman states, “My friend told me I would never have a baby because I had pelvic inflammatory disease when I was younger. I don’t understand how that can affect whether or not I get pregnant.” The nurse's best response is:
a.   “Your friend may be right. The disease may affect your ability to conceive.”
b.   “Pelvic inflammatory disease may damage the ovaries and prevent ovulation.”
c.   “Infection may cause scarring and obstruction of the fallopian tubes, which can prevent the fertilized egg from reaching the uterus.”
d.   “Your friend has been misinformed. Fallopian tube damage occurs only following gonorrhea.”
