Answer to Question 1

3,5
Rationale 1: Some women conceive in the first month, and others take several months to conceive. There is no evidence to support that not getting pregnant in the first month means pregnancy will be delayed several months.
Rationale 2: There is no reason to let the extra hormones clear for 6 months.
Rationale 3: It may take several months for regular menstrual cycles to occur.
Rationale 4: The length of contraceptive use does not appear to affect fertility.
Rationale 5: The risk of miscarriage is not affected by taking contraceptives.

Global Rationale: It may take several months for regular menstrual cycles to occur. The risk of miscarriage is not affected by taking contraceptives. There is no reason to let the extra hormones clear for 6 months. Some women conceive in the first month and others take several months to conceive. There is no evidence to support that not getting pregnant in the first month means pregnancy will be delayed several months. The length of contraceptive use does not appear to affect fertility.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
