Upon incarceration, female inmates should be asked for:
1. Their gynecologic history.
2. The names of their children.
3. The date of their last menstrual period.
4. The date of their last mammogram.
Answer: 3
Explanation: 3. As female incarceration rates rise, their health needs must be considered. Asking the date of the last menstrual period will give an indication of whether or not the female inmate is pregnant, as this poses special health concerns in a correctional facility. Asking for a gynecologic history is important as well as the date of their last mammogram, but this assumes that female inmates have had regular access to these health services, which may not be the case. Asking for the names of their children assumes that all female inmates are mothers.
