Choice A rationale
Oral contraceptives are often used in the treatment of PCOS to restore menstrual regularity. They do this by regulating the hormonal imbalances that cause the irregular periods seen in PCOS678910.
Choice B rationale
While oral contraceptives can indirectly lead to ovulation in some women with PCOS by regulating their menstrual cycles, they are not typically used to directly induce ovulation. Other medications, such as clomiphene or letrozole, are more commonly used for this purpose.

Choice C rationale
While insulin resistance is a common feature of PCOS, oral contraceptives are not typically used to improve insulin uptake. Other medications, such as metformin, are more commonly used for this purpose.
Choice D rationale
While oral contraceptives can help alleviate hirsutism (excessive hair growth) in women with PCOS by reducing levels of circulating androgens, this is typically considered a secondary benefit rather than the primary rationale for their use.

Choice A rationale
Breastfeeding every 2 hours is actually recommended for newborns and is not a contributing factor to mastitis.
Choice B rationale
Substituting breastfeeding sessions with formula feeding can contribute to mastitis. This is because the milk that is not removed from the breast can lead to engorgement and blocked ducts, which can result in infection.
Choice C rationale
Blisters and cracks on the nipples can allow bacteria to enter the breast tissue, leading to infection and mastitis.
Choice D rationale
Alternating breastfeeding positions can help ensure that the breasts are emptied completely during each feeding, which can help prevent mastitis.
