Correct Answer is A

Explanation

Choice A rationale:

Estrogen deficiency is the primary cause of hot flashes and night sweats in postmenopausal women. As estrogen levels decrease, it affects the hypothalamus, which is responsible for regulating body temperature, leading to these symptoms.

Choice B rationale:

Changes in vaginal pH occur during menopause due to estrogen deficiency, but this is not the primary cause of hot flashes and night sweats.

Choice C rationale:

An active lifestyle can help manage symptoms of menopause, but it is not the primary cause of hot flashes and night sweats.

Choice D rationale:

Poor dietary intake can exacerbate symptoms of menopause, but it is not the primary cause of hot flashes and night sweats.

A. Transient fetal hypoxia. B. Normal. C. Possible infection. D. Meconium passage .

Correct Answer is C

Explanation

Choice A rationale:

Transient fetal hypoxia is not typically associated with cloudy amniotic fluid. It’s a condition where the fetus doesn’t get enough oxygen.

Choice B rationale:

Normal amniotic fluid is clear or light yellow. Cloudy amniotic fluid is not considered normal.

Choice C rationale:

Cloudy amniotic fluid could indicate a possible infection. The cloudiness can be due to the presence of bacteria and inflammatory cells.

Choice D rationale:

Meconium passage can cause the amniotic fluid to become green or brown, not typically cloudy. So, the correct answer for both questions 26 and 27 is C.
