Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale:
1. Return of fertility after the use of Depo-Provera takes an average of 9 months.
2. A nursing mother can use Depo-Provera.
3. Obesity and vaginal prolapse do not prevent the use of Depo-Provera.
4. Obesity and vaginal prolapse do not prevent the use of Depo-Provera.

Answer to Question 2

B
A positive pregnancy test can occur as early as 10 days following conception; audible fetal heart tones and fetal movements occur between 18 and 20 weeks, and 20 weeks is the age of viability. Fetal movement and audible fetal heart tones occur between 18 and 20 weeks.
