Question 2

For men,a _____ involves making a small incision in the scrotal sac to reach the vas deferens,which are cut and then blocked at both ends.

Accepted Answer

A vasectomy is a type of male sterilization procedure that involves cutting and blocking the vas deferens, which is the tube that carries sperm from the testicles to the urethra. This can be done by making a small incision in the scrotal sac and then blocking the vas deferens at both ends. A hormonal implant is a type of birth control that releases hormones into the body to prevent pregnancy, but it is not a sterilization procedure. A colonoscopy is a medical procedure that involves examining the colon and rectum to check for abnormalities, but it is not a form of birth control or sterilization. A laparoscopy is a type of surgical procedure that involves making a small incision in the abdomen and using a camera and instruments to examine or operate on the internal organs. It is not typically used for male sterilization. A tubal ligation is a sterilization procedure for women that involves cutting, tying, or sealing the fallopian tubes to prevent eggs from reaching the uterus, and is not used for men.

Question 4

A woman's basal body temperature spikes immediately before,during,and after _____.

Accepted Answer

Basal body temperature spikes immediately before, during, and after ovulation, as it is a sign that the body is releasing an egg.

Question 5

_____ refer to contraceptive methods based on ovulation prediction and the viability of sperm;intercourse is timed to avoid fertile days in a woman's reproductive cycle.

Accepted Answer

Natural methods refer to contraceptive methods that rely on natural indicators of a woman's fertility cycle, such as tracking basal body temperature and changes in cervical mucus. Intercourse is timed to avoid the fertile days of the cycle when there is a higher chance of pregnancy occurring.

Question 6

Kathryn is using a natural method of contraception which uses cervical secretions as an indicator of fertility.She has not noticed any cervical secretions yesterday and today.Which of the following can Kathryn infer from these observations?

Accepted Answer

If Kathryn has not noticed any cervical secretions, it is likely that she is currently in a non-fertile phase of her menstrual cycle. Therefore, the likelihood of pregnancy is low and she can engage in intercourse without the risk of pregnancy. However, this method does not protect against sexually transmitted infections, so barrier methods should still be used if there is a risk of STI transmission. Options A and E can be ruled out as there is no information given to suggest a bacterial STI or STI testing. Option B cannot be inferred without additional information or testing. Option C is not necessary as the likelihood of pregnancy is low based on the method Kathryn is using.

Question 7

_____ prevents fertilization by interrupting the passage of sperm or egg through the fallopian tubes.

Accepted Answer

Tubal ligation is a permanent method of contraception in which the fallopian tubes are cut, tied, or sealed, preventing the sperm from reaching the egg and fertilization from occurring. This method interrupts the passage of sperm or egg through the fallopian tubes.

The TwoDay Method is the fertility awareness-based method that uses cervical secretions as the indicator of fertility. This method involves checking the cervical secretions to determine if they are present or absent over a 24-hour period. If secretions are present on any part of the day, the woman is considered fertile. If secretions are absent for two days in a row, the woman is considered infertile.

Question 12

Why do natural methods of contraception have high failure rates?

Accepted Answer

A vasectomy is a procedure in which a small incision is made in the scrotal sac and the vas deferens are cut and tied. This is a permanent form of contraception for males. Hormonal implants, colonoscopies, tubal ligation, and laparoscopies are not related to this procedure.

Question 16

Which of the following is a metallic implant that is inserted into the fallopian tubes as a voluntary surgical contraception?

Accepted Answer

Essure is a metallic implant that is inserted into the fallopian tubes as a voluntary surgical contraception. The implant creates scar tissue that blocks the tubes, preventing sperm from reaching and fertilizing the eggs. NuvaRing, Lea's shield, FemCap, and pessary are all forms of non-surgical contraception.

Question 17

Which of the following methods are the least successful ways to prevent pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Fertility awareness methods (also known as natural family planning) have been shown to have higher failure rates compared to other methods of contraception. These methods involve tracking a woman's menstrual cycle and abstaining from sex during fertile periods to avoid pregnancy. However, they require strict adherence and may not be reliable for women with irregular cycles or those who cannot accurately track their fertility.

Question 18

For a _____,the fallopian tubes are cut,tied,or blocked using a variety of techniques.

Accepted Answer

Tubal ligation involves the cutting, tying, or blocking of the fallopian tubes, which are the tubes that carry eggs from the ovaries to the uterus. This procedure is a permanent form of female sterilization and is commonly referred to as "getting one's tubes tied." The other choices are not related to tubal ligation. A vasectomy is a male sterilization procedure, a colonoscopy is a diagnostic test for the large intestine, a laparoscopy is a surgical procedure that may involve visualizing the fallopian tubes but is not a type of sterilization, and a hormonal implant is a form of birth control that involves releasing hormones into the body to prevent ovulation.
