health, HT must continue lifelong.

Hormone therapy (HT) in postmenopausal women


When to use progestin for hormone replacement therapy and
why - Answer-to counterbalance estrogen-mediated
stimulation of the endometrium, which can lead to endometrial
hyperplasia and cancer.

,When not to use progestin for hormone replacement therapy
and why - Answer-Progestins should not be prescribed as HRT
for women who have undergone hysterectomy.


Local vs. systemic estrogen options and why one would be
chosen over the other - Answer-Compared with oral
formulations of estrogen, the transdermal formulations have
four advantages:
• The total dose of estrogen is greatly reduced (because the
liver is bypassed).
• There is less nausea and vomiting.
• Blood levels of estrogen fluctuate less.
• There is a lower risk for DVT, pulmonary embolism, and
stroke


Function/mechanism of combination OC - Answer-reduce
fertility primarily by inhibiting ovulation.


Role of Progestin in combination OC - Answer-acts in the
hypothalamus and pituitary to suppress the midcycle luteinizing
hormone surge, which normally triggers ovulation.

release of follicle-stimulating hormone from the pituitary (and
thereby inhibits follicular maturation),


(2) main categories of OCs: - Answer-(1) those that contain an
estrogen plus a progestin, known as combination OCs, and (2)
those that contain just a progestin, known as "minipills" or
progestin-only OCs

Thrombophlebitis, thromboembolic disorders, cerebral vascular
disease, coronary occlusion, or a past history of these
conditions, or a condition that predisposes to these disorders
Abnormal liver function

Smokers older than 35 years


Progestin-only OCs, also known as "minipills" - Answer-do not
cause thromboembolic disorders, headaches, nausea, or most
of the other adverse effects associated with combination OCs.

, Unfortunately, although slightly safer than combination OCs,
less effective and are more likely to cause irregular bleeding

implants (Nexplanon)Intramuscular medroxyprogesterone
acetate (Depo-Provera)SterilizationIntrauterine device (IUD)


The method of contraception chosen most frequently by birth
control users - Answer-Sterilization: female sterilization (tubal
ligation) plus male sterilization (vasectomy) are selected by 19%
of birth control users

chosen. - Answer-effectiveness, safety, and personal preference
