The nurse is planning an education session for adolescent males on health promotion activities. Which topic should the nurse include as being the most applicable for this population?

A) Reproductive cycle
B) Immunization schedule
C) Importance of socialization
D) Testicular self-examination


D
Feedback:
Starting in adolescence, all males need to perform testicular self-examination once a month. This is the health promotion activity in which the nurse should focus for this educational session. The reproductive cycle might be more appropriate for adolescent females. Immunization schedule and socialization would be more appropriate for younger children and parents.
