Answer to Question 1

A
The nurse should advise the patients to have intercourse the evening before the injection and on the following 2 to 3 days (during the probable period of ovulation). Having intercourse the morning of the hCG injection and later that evening will not enhance the effects of menotropins. Avoiding intercourse the evening of the injection and on the following day will not enhance the effects of menotropins. Having intercourse the evening of the injection and on the following morning will not enhance the effects of menotropins.

Answer to Question 2

C
Riboflavin deficiency produces the symptoms described and can be treated with riboflavin sup-plements. These signs do not indicate deficiencies of niacin, pyridoxine, or thiamine.
