A young woman is being seen in the gynecology clinic of the local health department. She has decided to begin hormonal contraceptives. What action is specific to hormonal contraceptives and should be taught to this woman?

A. The cevical mucus is made resistant to penetration by spermatozoa.
B. The follicle-stimulating hormone release is increased to block fertility.
C. The maturation of the endometrial lining is activated by contraceptive.
D. The pituitary gland increases the synthesis and release of luteinizing hormone.

The cervical mucus is made resistant to penetration by spermatozoa.

Hormonal contraceptives inhibit the hypothalamic secretion of gonadotropin-releasing hormone, which inhibits FSH and LH. The drugs produce cervical mucus that resists penetration of spermatozoa into the upper reproductive tract. Hormonal contraceptives inhibit the release of follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone. The drugs interfere with endometrial maturation and reception of ova that are released and fertilized.
