    A nurse is assessing a client who has Graves' disease. Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?

    Explanation & Rationale

    A. Hirsutism Hirsutism is excessive hair growth often related to Cushing’s syndrome or androgen excess, not Graves’ disease. B. Goiter Graves’ disease often leads to thyroid gland enlargement (goiter) due to overstimulation. C. Polydipsia Polydipsia is typically associated with diabetes mellitus or diabetes insipidus, not Graves’ disease. D. Polyuria Like polydipsia, polyuria is more common in diabetes and not a typical symptom of Graves’ disease.
