Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Heavy cigarette smoking is a contraindication. Oral contraceptives are contraindicated with a history of thrombophlebitis. Liver tumors, benign or malignant, preclude the use of oral contraceptives. Pregnancy is a contraindication.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
The cervical cap may increase the risk of toxic shock syndrome because it may be left in the vagina for a prolonged period. A condom is not contraindicated with a history of toxic shock syndrome. Spermicide is not contraindicated with a history of toxic shock syndrome. Oral contraceptives are not contraindicated with a history of toxic shock syndrome.
