A nurse is caring for a 28-year-old patient who is taking exogenous testosterone for treatment of cryptorchidism. What statement by this patient would lead the nurse to believe that patient teaching has been ineffective?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Check explanation.

Explanation:

When someone(whether it is been noticed as a baby or when the person is an adult) has one or both of the testicles in the wrong way or position in the scrotal sac or scrotum. Another way of saying this is that the testicles are not descended or say the testicles are undescended. People with this kind of disorder has the tendency of having cancer ans infertility.

Although, the use of exogenous testosterone increases sperm count in some people, the exogenous testosterone does not increase the level of sperm count in some people too. So, the patient should not think that by using exogenous testosterone, it Should increases sperm count and if the 28-year-old patient says something about an increase in sperm count because the he is using exogenous testosterone to treat cryptorchidism then, the teaching of the nurse has been ineffective.
