Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Medication to induce ovulation may be administered to the woman who does not ovulate or ovulates irregularly. Clomiphene citrate is the drug most commonly given to stimulate ovulation. More than one ovum (ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome) may be released and fertilized, making twins and other multiples more common. Women should be allowed to discuss their concerns before beginning treatment.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Although some sterilization procedures can be reversed, reversal cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, the person must realize that sterilization should be considered permanent. Complications are possible.
