Answer to Question 1

ANS: C, D, E
The FAB method of family planning is based on identifying the woman's fertile periods and abstaining or using other methods of contraception when she is fertile. This method requires motivation, extensive education, and commitment to be used successfully. The couple may need to chart cycles and symptoms of fertility for months before initiating this method. There are several ways to track fertility, including using a calendar or rhythm method, the standard days method, the cervical mucus method, the basal body temperature method, and the symptothermal method that combines basal body temperature with other physical signs. When used correctly and consistently, this method is about 75 effective.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, C, D
The four phases of human sexual response described by Masters and Johnson are excitement, plateau, orgasm, and resolution. Response is not a phase.
