Acne vulgaris is one of the most commonly treated dermatologic diseases in adult females, but treatment selection and patient education should be tailored specifically to this population. Acne in women has a known association with both physical and psychological factors. There are often genetic, hormonal, and skin care routines that play a role in the etiopathogenesis, and maintenance is often required for many years. Taking into consideration appropriate assessment and diagnosis of severity for acne and having knowledge about available treatment modalities will facilitate successful management.

facilitates making an informed, medically appropriate contraceptive choice. Using both SCC and SDM may improve the quality of contraceptive counseling and ultimately increase contraceptive uptake and adherence. The goal of this project was to design and implement a contraceptive counseling protocol using an SDM frame-work, embedded within the flow of care provided in a university health clinic. The purpose was to educate staff about SCC with provide improved patient contraceptive education resources, and increase both and provider satisfaction with the counseling process.

Hypothyroidism is a common endocrine disorder affecting nearly 2 in 100 women. Primary hypothyroidism can be diagnosed and effectively managed by primary care providers. Pharmacologic treatment is essential and lifelong, with most patients achieving euthyroid state and enjoying good quality of life.

The prevalence of type 2 diabetes in women of reproductive age ranges from 3% to 7%. Due to the common nature of this condition, it is imperative for nurse practitioners who care for women to understand evidence-based methods of diabetes management. The aim of this article is to describe current screening and diagnostic criteria for type 2 diabetes, discuss current evidence-based management and patient education necessary to prevent long-term complications, and provide the tools for a healthy reproductive plan in women with type 2 diabetes from puberty until menopause. Diabetes management extends well beyond glucose control, and nurse practitioners should be attuned to all factors that can impact cardiovascular risk and quality of life.

In this article, the authors use two case studies to describe the assessment of patients with potential tickborne illness. Criteria for the diagnosis and current recommendations for treatment of Rocky Mountain spotted fever and Lyme disease are reviewed. Patient education for prevention of tickborne illnesses is discussed. Readers are provided with the link to a video with a step-by-step simulation on tick removal.
