Answer to Question 1

ANS: T
Intrauterine thermal balloon therapy is contraindicated for women who wish to have future pregnancies. The thermal process destroys the endometrial lining that supports the placental attachment during pregnancy.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: T
A vaginal hysterectomy is done totally through the vagina. A total abdominal hysterectomy (TAH) is done all through the open abdomen. A laparoscopic assisted vaginal hysterectomy (LAVH) is performed by using laparoscopy to take down the abdominal ligaments and vasculature and remove the uterus through the vagina.
