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.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
