2024 PN NCLEX Questions Nursing Practice Question
All of the following are clinical manifestations indicating male climacteric except:
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Male climacteric, often referred to as andropause, involves various physiological changes. Hot flashes (A), headaches (C), and heart palpitations (D) can occur due to hormonal fluctuations, making them relevant manifestations. In contrast, loss of reproductive ability (B) is typically associated with aging rather than a climacteric phase, as men can retain some reproductive capability longer than women. Thus, while the other options reflect symptoms linked to hormonal changes, loss of reproductive ability is not a direct manifestation of male climacteric.
