Question: When palpating the cervix during the bimanual exam, cervical motion tenderness (cha... ndelier sign) is noted. This tenderness could be suggestive of: pelvic inflammatory disease Explanation: Cervical motion tenderness, also known as Chandelier's sign, and/or adnexal tenderness, suggest pelvic inflammatory disease, ectopic pregnancy, or appendicitis. 2. Question: In a female diagnosed with a first-degree uterine prolapse, the cervix: has slipped but is well within the vagina Explanation: Uterine prolapse occurs in progressive stages. The uterus becomes retroverted and descends down the vaginal canal to the exterior. In first-degree prolapse, the cervix is still well within the vagina. In seconddegree prolapse, it is at the introitus. In third-degree prolapse (procidentia), the cervix and vagina are outside the introitus. 3. Question: Daughters of women who took Diethylstilbestrol (DES) during pregnancy are at a high risk for developing all of the following abnormalities except: a slit- like cervical os. Correct Explanation: Daughters of women who took Diethylstilbestrol (DES) during pregnancy are at greatly increased risk for several abnormalities: columnar epithelium that covers most or all of the cervix vaginal adenosis, and a circular collar or ridge of tissue, of varying shapes, between the cervix and vagina. The slit-like cervical os is a normal variation. 4. Question: A female patient presents with a profuse, yellowish, green vaginal discharge that is malodorous. This vaginal discharge is most consistent with: Trichomonal vaginitis Explanation: Trichomonas vaginalis causes trichomonal vaginitis. Presenting symptoms include a profuse, yellowish, green vaginal discharge that is malodorous. Candidal vaginitis produces a white and curd-like thin discharge that is rarely malodorous. With bacterial vaginosis, the discharge can be gray or white, thin, malodorous (fishy), and not usually profuse. The discharge associated with gonorrhea is usually thick and bloody. 5. Question: The most common causes of sexual problems in females are related to: psychosocial factors Explanation: The most common problems that occur during sexual activity are related to situational or psychosocial factors. Although lack of desire, inadequate vaginal lubrication, and pelvic disorders may all contribute to sexual problems, the most common causes are situational and psychosocial in origin.
