Answer to Question 1

B, C, E
Feedback:
Treatment is aimed at relieving symptoms so teaching should be about symptom management. Antiandrogen medication may be used to reduce hair growth and acne. An eating plan may be used to reduce obesity. Oral combined estrogen/progesterone contraception is used to better regulate menstrual cycles. Exercise is not identified as a specific treatment. Fertility medication is used if the patient desires to become pregnant and not to regulate menstrual cycles.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, F
Feedback:
The functional history should contain information about the child's daily routine, such as toileting habits, safety measures, and nutrition. Problems with growth and development would be covered in the developmental history. Prenatal and perinatal history is assessed in the past health history and the child's race and ethnicity is part of the demographics.
