    1.      The most common side effect of IUD insertion is

    • A. Bleeding

    • B. Pain

    • C. Pelvic infection

    • D. Ectopic pregnancy

    Correct Answer
    A. A. Bleeding
    Explanation
    The most common side effect of IUD insertion is bleeding. This is because the IUD can cause irritation and inflammation in the uterus, leading to some spotting or light bleeding. This is usually temporary and should subside within a few days or weeks. It is important to note that heavy or prolonged bleeding should be reported to a healthcare provider as it may indicate a more serious issue.

    • A. Rhythm method

    • B. Coitus interruptus

    • C. Breast feeding

    • D. All of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. D. All of the above
    Explanation
    The correct answer is d. All of the above. Natural methods of contraception include the rhythm method, coitus interruptus, and breastfeeding. The rhythm method involves tracking a woman's menstrual cycle to determine when she is most fertile and avoiding intercourse during that time. Coitus interruptus, also known as the "pull-out" method, involves withdrawing the penis before ejaculation to prevent sperm from entering the vagina. Breastfeeding can act as a natural contraceptive method, as it can delay the return of ovulation and menstruation. Therefore, all of these methods are considered natural forms of contraception.

    1.      Which of the following is an examples of ‘Conventional Contraception’? [FMGE, September 2006]

    • A. Condoms

    • B. IUDs

    • C. Vasectomy

    • D. Tubectomy

    Correct Answer
    A. A. Condoms
    Explanation
    Condoms are considered an example of 'Conventional Contraception' because they are a widely used and easily accessible method of contraception. They are a barrier method that prevents pregnancy by physically blocking sperm from entering the uterus. Condoms are effective in preventing both pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections (STIs). They are also reversible and do not require any medical procedures or hormonal interventions. Therefore, condoms are a popular choice for individuals who want to have control over their reproductive health without any long-term commitments or side effects.

    • C. Bleeding

    • D. Perforation

    Correct Answer

    Explanation
    The most common side effect of IUD insertion is bleeding. This is because the IUD can cause irritation to the lining of the uterus, leading to some amount of bleeding. This bleeding is usually mild and may last for a few days or weeks after insertion. It is important for patients to be aware of this potential side effect and to consult with their healthcare provider if the bleeding becomes heavy or prolonged.

    1.      Oligospermia, according to WHO is [FMGE, march 2008] [FMGE, March 2007]

    • A. < 20 sperms per HPF

    • B. < 200 sperms per HPF

    • C. < 20,000 sperms per HPF

    • D. < 20 million sperms per HPF

    Correct Answer
    A. D. < 20 million sperms per HPF
    Explanation
    Oligospermia is a condition characterized by a low sperm count. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), oligospermia is defined as having less than 20 million sperm per high power field (HPF). This means that if a semen sample is examined under a microscope and there are less than 20 million sperm visible in each HPF, it would be considered oligospermia. Therefore, option d, which states "< 20 million sperms per HPF," is the correct answer.

It is a barrier method that is inserted into the vagina to cover the cervix and prevent sperm from reaching the egg. It is a good choice for women who want to have control over their contraception and can be used for multiple acts of intercourse. It does not require hormones and has a lower risk of side effects compared to other methods.

This condition can be caused by various factors such as hormonal imbalances, blockages in the reproductive tract, genetic disorders, or certain medical treatments. It is different from aspermia, which refers to the absence of semen ejaculation, and oligospermia, which refers to a low sperm count. Asthenozoospermia, on the other hand, refers to reduced sperm motility.

    1.      Conventional contraceptives are those which

    • A. Were discovered before 1960

    • B. Require action after intercourse

    • C. Require action at the time of intercourse

    • D. Require action before intercourse

    Correct Answer
    A. C. Require action at the time of intercourse
    Explanation
    Conventional contraceptives are those that require action at the time of intercourse. This means that these contraceptives need to be used or taken during sexual activity to prevent pregnancy. Examples of conventional contraceptives include condoms, diaphragms, and spermicides. These methods work by creating a barrier or by killing or immobilizing sperm to prevent fertilization. Unlike other types of contraceptives that can be used before or after intercourse, conventional contraceptives must be used during the act itself to be effective.

    1.      To achieve NRR=1, couple protection rate must be minimum [FMGE, march 2005]

    • A. > 33%

    • B. > 50%

    • C. > 60%

    • D. > 80%

    Correct Answer
    A. C. > 60%
    Explanation
    To achieve NRR=1, couple protection rate must be minimum of over 60%. This means that at least 60% of couples must be using some form of protection to prevent pregnancy. If the couple protection rate is lower than 60%, it would not be sufficient to achieve a Net Reproduction Rate (NRR) of 1, which is the replacement level fertility rate.

By choosing condoms, individuals can minimize the risk of experiencing any adverse effects while still effectively preventing unwanted pregnancies and protecting against sexually transmitted infections.

This could be interpreted as the number of couples who are of marriageable age and are considered eligible for marriage. This statistic gives an indication of the population's demographic and could be used for various purposes such as planning for social welfare programs or understanding the demand for marriage-related services.

    • A. Fibroadenoma breast

    • B. Iron deficiency anemia

    • C. Ovarian cancer

    • D. Hepatocellular adenoma

    Correct Answer
    A. D. Hepatocellular adenoma
    Explanation
    Oral contraceptives have been found to decrease the risk of developing hepatocellular adenoma, a type of liver tumor. This is because the hormones in oral contraceptives can help regulate cell growth in the liver and prevent the development of abnormal cells that can lead to adenoma formation. However, it is important to note that while oral contraceptives can reduce the risk of hepatocellular adenoma, they may also slightly increase the risk of other types of liver tumors, such as hepatocellular carcinoma. Therefore, it is crucial to weigh the benefits and risks with a healthcare provider before starting oral contraceptives.
