Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 3
The Bartholin's glands, or greater vestibular glands, are located posteriorly at the base of the vestibule and produce mucus, which is released into the vestibule.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 3
Precocious puberty is an endocrine disorder characterized by the development of adult male characteristics in males under age 10. It includes dense pubic hair, penile enlargement, and enlargement of the testes. Precocious puberty may be idiopathic or caused by a genetic trait, lesions in the pituitary gland or hypothalamus, or testicular tumors. Referral to an endocrinologist may be required for definitive diagnosis. Estrogen is not administered to males to manage precocious puberty. A prompt diagnosis of the condition is warranted. It would be inappropriate to continue observation for the next 6 to 9 months. While processed foods may contain excess hormones and chemicals the child in the scenario will need a prompt diagnosis of this condition.
