Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
Perimenopause refers to a period of time in which hormonal changes occur gradually,
ovarian function diminishes, and menses become irregular. Perimenopause lasts
approximately five years.
Climacteric is a term
applied to the period of life in which physiologic changes occur and result in
cessation of a woman's reproductive
ability and lessened sexual activity in males. The term applies to both genders.
Climacteric and menopause are
interchangeable terms when used for females. Menopause is the period when
permanent cessation of menses has
occurred. Postmenopause refers to the period after the changes accompanying
menopause are complete.Health

Correct
Answer: D
Section:
(none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
Unexplained vaginal bleeding is a contraindication for hormone replacement
therapy. Family history of stroke is not a contraindication for hormone
replacement therapy. If the woman herself had a history of stroke or
other blood-clotting events, hormone therapy could be contraindicated. Frequent
hot flashes and/or night sweats
can be relieved by hormone replacement therapy.Health Promotion and Maintenance
