Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Factors affecting male infertility include impotence due to alcohol. Nightly masturbation and high testosterone levels do not have the greatest implication on male infertility in a patient with admitted alcohol issues. Primary anovulation refers to female infertility, so it is not a consideration for male infertility.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
The use of a soft bristle toothbrush will help prevent bleeding of the gums in a patient with thrombocytopenia. The blade of a safety razor can nick or cut the skin and cause bleeding. Dental care can cause gum bleeding. The consumption of fresh fruit is not part of bleeding precautions.
