Answer to Question 1

D
Prolactin is a hormone produced by the pituitary gland that triggers milk production. Progesterone and estrogen help maintain the body's return to the prepregnant state and support breastfeeding, but do not stimulate milk production. Androgen is a male hormone.

Answer to Question 2

1
Rationale:
1. These symptoms all are consistent with hyperventilation.
2. Seizure auras do not have these types of symptoms.
3. Imminent birth does not have these types of symptoms.
4. Anxiety does not have these types of symptoms.
