Answer to Question 1

B
Bacterial vaginosis is caused when frequent douching changes the pH of the vaginal vault and creates an environment conducive to bacterial invasion. Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) like syphilis are not transferred by douching. PID is a condition that most often results from an untreated infection. Vaginitis is an inflammatory condition that does not result from douching.

Answer to Question 2

A
Ambulation is the most effective method for helping a patient expel gas. Hot or cold beverages and cold compresses will increase gas.
