A woman is using the basal body temperature (BBT) method of contraception. She calls the clinic and tells the nurse, My period is due in a few days, and my temperature has not gone up. The nurse's most appropriate response is:
 
  a. This probably means that you're pregnant.
  b. Don't worry; it's probably nothing.
  c. Have you been sick this month?
  d. You probably didn't ovulate during this cycle.

ANS: D
The absence of a temperature decrease most likely is the result of lack of ovulation. Pregnancy cannot occur without ovulation (which is being measured using the BBT method). A comment such as Don't worry; it's probably nothing discredits the client's concerns. Illness would most likely cause an increase in BBT.
