A mother has come to the clinic with her 14-year-old daughter. The mother is concerned her daughter is pregnant because she isn't having normal menses, even though a home pregnancy test is negative. The girl mentions she is training for a gymnastics meet and hopes to go to college on a sports scholarship.
1) What should the nurse do?
