question 13

what nsaids are approved by fda for the treatment of dysmenorrhea?
diclofenac

Explanation:

Question 11:

Depo-Provera (a progestin-only injectable contraceptive) reduces heavy menstrual bleeding and dysmenorrhea, and only requires administration every 3 months, making it ideal for a patient who travels frequently. Estrogen-only oral contraceptives are not used for contraception alone, and progestin-only pills require daily adherence which is less suitable for frequent travel.

Question 12:

In postmenopausal women (55+ years old), most breast masses are benign fibrocystic changes or cysts that often shrink or resolve over time. Macromastia is not the top cause of breast masses, masses are not presumed malignant upfront, and diagnostic testing is not deferred for new breast masses in this age group.

Question 13:

The visible option, diclofenac, is an NSAID FDA-approved for dysmenorrhea. Other approved NSAIDs include ibuprofen and naproxen, but based on the visible option, diclofenac is a correct choice.

Answer:

1. Question 11: Depo-Provera
2. Question 12: Most breast masses decrease in size over time and many resolve completely.
3. Question 13: Diclofenac
