Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, C, D
ACHES stands for abdominal pain, chest pain (or shortness of breath), headaches, eye problems, and severe leg pain. Muscle soreness is not part of the acronym.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, C, D
Certain women are not suitable candidates for the cervical cap. Patients who have a history of toxic shock syndrome, pelvic inflammatory disease, cervicitis, papillomavirus infection, a previous abnormal Pap test or cervical cancer, undiagnosed vaginal bleeding, or a silicone allergy should choose another contraceptive method. In addition, women who have an abnormally short or long cervix may not be able to use a cervical cap satisfactorily. Because the cervical cap can cause irritation, it is not advisable for women who are at high risk for HIV, such as commercial sex workers. Parity has no bearing on suitability for using this device.
