Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
Neonates are considered to be infants from full-term newborn 0 to 4 weeks of age.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
Progestins are used to suppress ovarian function in dysmenorrhea, endometriosis, endometrial cancer, and uterine bleeding. Estrogen is not administered alone, but in combination with progestins. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents, such as naproxen and ibuprofen, decrease pain and inflammation but do not affect ovarian function.
