Answer to Question 1

Ans: C, E
Feedback:
Thyroxine and tri-iodothyronine are hormones secreted by the thyroid gland. The anterior pituitary secretes thyroid-stimulating hormone. Prolactin and adrenocorticotropic hormone are secreted by the pituitary gland.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A, B, C
Feedback:
The client is at risk for ovarian enlargement manifested by abdominal distention, pain, and ascites (with serious cases). The nurse would immediately notify the primary health care provider and the drug would be discontinued at the first sign of ovarian stimulation or enlargement. Weight gain and irritability would not need to be reported immediately.
