Name three client factors that must be considered in PMU planning before starting the procedure.

• A. Medical history, current medications (e.g., blood thinners), pregnancy status.
• B. Favorite skin tone, preferred brand, daily exercise.
• C. Hair color, height, and eye color.
• D. Allergies to cosmetics, coffee intake, and sleep quality.

Answer: (A)

Screening a client’s medical history, current medications (such as blood thinners), and pregnancy status is essential before PMU planning. Medical history helps identify conditions that can affect healing, infection risk, and pigment outcomes; current medications influence bleeding risk and how the body responds to the procedure; pregnancy status is a safety concern and may affect timing and product use. The other options focus on personal preferences or physical traits that don’t directly impact safety or how the procedure is planned, so they’re not as relevant for determining eligibility and approach.
