Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, C, D
Progestin therapy is used in combination with estrogens as a contraceptive, to relieve symptoms of endometriosis, for hormonal balance to relieve amenorrhea, and for hormonal balance to relieve abnormal uterine bleeding. Progestin is not used in cancer treatment.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Women should be monitored for signs of masculinization, such as deepening of the voice. Males should be carefully monitored for priapism and development of gynecomastia. Fluid retention is a metabolic effect, not an endocrine change, that may occur.
