Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
The best time to conduct a BSE is shortly after the menstrual period when the breasts are the smallest and least congested.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Postmenopausal women are no longer experiencing regular menstrual cycles but need to continue to perform BSEs on a monthly basis. Choosing the same day of the month is a helpful reminder to perform the examination.
