Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
The best time to conduct a BSE is shortly after the menstrual period when the breasts are the smallest and least congested.

Postmenopausal women are no longer experiencing regular menstrual cycles but need to continue to perform BSEs on a monthly basis. Choosing the same day of the month is a helpful reminder to perform the examination.
