Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Gardasil should be administered in three separate intramuscular injections in the upper arm over a 6-month period, with the first dose at an elected date, the second dose 2 months after the first dose, and the third dose 6 months after the first dose.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B, C, F, G
These are positive signs of response. Nocturia and bladder fullness are not. PSA is related to prostate cancer, not BPH.
