Which assessment finding would the nurse expect to find in a sexually active adolescent female concerned that she has contracted gonorrhea?

B. Slight yellow vaginal discharge is correct. This is a classic symptom of gonorrhea in females. Gonorrhea often causes mucopurulent cervicitis, leading to a mild yellow vaginal discharge. It’s one of the most common signs, especially in sexually active adolescents. Incorrect options: A. Low-grade fever for three days: Not a typical early symptom of gonorrhea. Fever may occur in severe or disseminated gonococcal infections, but it's uncommon as an initial presentation. C. Frothy, white vaginal discharge: This is more characteristic of trichomoniasis, another STI, caused by Trichomonas vaginalis. The discharge is typically frothy, greenish-yellow, and accompanied by a foul odor. D. Decrease in urinary frequency: Not associated with gonorrhea. Gonorrhea can cause increased urinary frequency and urgency if the urethra is involved, but a decrease is not typical.
