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.
