Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
The formation of fibrocystic lesions may be increased in some women with the use of methylxanthines found in caffeine so avoiding foods such as coffee, cola drinks, tea, chocolate, some toffee candy, and medications that contain caffeine helps reduce pain. Fibrocystic lesions are not precancerous. The lesions will not fade with full growth of the breasts. Breast self-examination is indicated monthly for all women.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
Children who develop precociously are fully fertile and are able to conceive. Psychological counseling is not usually necessary for this disorder. The child will be able to have children. Medication is used to suppress further development and to ensure that the long bones do not fuse early.
