Overview

Guidelines for Nurse Practitioners in Gynecologic Settings (12th Edition) by Hawkins, Roberto-Nichols, and Stanley-Haney is a long-standing clinical guideline resource for NPs and clinicians providing gynecologic care. This study guide is built to follow it chapter by chapter, so you review in the same order it is organized — from the well-woman annual exam, safe practices, substance use, and weight management, through assessing abuse, care of sexual and gender minority individuals, adolescent and mental health, contraception, and preconception care, and then through breast conditions, HPV and cervical abnormalities, genitourinary conditions, infertility, pelvic floor dysfunction, menstrual disorders, perimenopause, PCOS, sexually transmitted infections, and vaginitis, plus case studies and education templates. It pulls out the high-yield diagnostic criteria, management guidelines, and counseling points you need for exams and clinical practice. It is an independent, aligned study companion — not the textbook itself and not a reproduction of its content.

Aligned with nurse practitioner women's health and gynecology courses and clinical practice, supporting course exams and the gynecologic management content tested on women's health and FNP certification exams.
