Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Suggestions include to find a quiet place to talk to help reduce background noise, especially in restaurants and social gatherings; stand in good lighting and use facial expressions or gestures to give clues; face the person and talk clearly; speak a little more loudly than normal, but do not shout; and repeat yourself if necessary, using different words.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
The most common sign of ovarian cancer is abdominal enlargement. A woman may complain that her skirts and slacks are getting tighter in the waist. Because ovarian cancer is a silent cancer that causes more deaths than any other pelvic malignancy, the woman needs to see her health care provider immediately for transvaginal ultrasonography and a blood test (CA-125). Thus, it is important to refer the woman to a healthcare provider and not try to minimize or rationalize the symptoms that she has reported.
