Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Low androgen levels indicate delayed puberty. Patients who are short and who have not developed secondary sexual characteristics may have growth hormone deficiency, normal variations in development, or delayed puberty. Growth hormone deficiency may cause short stature.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Sildenafil should be taken at least 30 minutes and less than 4 hours prior to sexual activity. It is not taken daily or twice daily. If taken just prior to sexual activity, it does not have time to take effect.
