Received 20 y/o female with a chief c/o “miscarriage”. So I’m doing my assessment, asking her the usual questions.
RN: “Do you have an obgyn?”
Pt: “No”
RN: “Oh, so how was your pregnancy confirmed? did you take a home pregnancy test?”
Pt: “No, I just know I am. You know, it’s woman’s intuition”
RN: “When was your LMP?”
Pt: “Oh my last period was about a month ago, so I’m about 4 weeks pregnant
Needless to say, her urine and serum hcg was (-), her miscarriage turned out to be her period.
