  2. Hot flashes and night sweats
  3. High serum FSH with low serum estrogen
  4. Diagnosed with osteoporosis 4 months ago

Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale 1: Eight consecutive months of amenorrhea are enough to qualify as menopause.
Rationale 2: Although hot flashes and night sweats are common in menopause, they are not the most reliable indicator of menopause.
Rationale 3: Examining serum levels of the hormones FSH and estrogen is a very accurate indication of menopause.
Rationale 4: Menopause is not the only cause of osteoporosis; therefore, the diagnosis of osteoporosis 4 months ago is not an indicator of menopause.

Answer to Question 2

3
Explanation: 3. The most significant cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality is prematurity and its associated complications such as respiratory distress syndrome, necrotizing enterocolitis, and intraventricular hemorrhage.
