ACTUAL FINAL PRACTICE EXAM WITH ALL
POSSIBLE MOST TESTED 100 PRACTICE QUESTIONS
AND 100% CORRECT VERIFIED ANSWERS WITH
DETAILED RATIONALES PLUS CERTIFIED ANSWER
KEY RATED A+ MOST RECENT!!!
1. A 52-year-old woman presents with hot flushes,
night sweats, and vaginal dryness. She has a history
of breast cancer treated with tamoxifen 5 years ago.
Which of the following is the safest non-hormonal
option for her vasomotor symptoms?
A. Low-dose oral estrogen
B. Transdermal estradiol
,C. Paroxetine
D. Tibolone
Correct Answer: C. Paroxetine
Rationale: Paroxetine is a selective serotonin
reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) proven effective for
vasomotor symptoms. Estrogen and tibolone are
contraindicated in breast cancer survivors.
Paroxetine is a non-hormonal first-line option in this
setting.
2. The most common cause of secondary
amenorrhea in perimenopausal women is:
A. Premature ovarian insufficiency
B. Polycystic ovary syndrome
C. Functional hypothalamic amenorrhea
D. Asherman syndrome
Correct Answer: B. Polycystic ovary syndrome
Rationale: PCOS is the most frequent cause of
secondary amenorrhea overall, including in
perimenopausal age groups. Premature ovarian
insufficiency is less common, and functional
,amenorrhea typically occurs in younger women with
stress or weight loss.
3. A 48-year-old woman with regular cycles reports
new-onset heavy menstrual bleeding. Her
hemoglobin is 9.2 g/dL. Ultrasound shows a 3 cm
intramural fibroid. The most appropriate initial
management is:
A. Hysterectomy
B. Tranexamic acid plus iron supplementation
C. GnRH agonist
D. Endometrial ablation
Correct Answer: B. Tranexamic acid plus iron
supplementation
Rationale: Heavy menstrual bleeding with anemia
requires medical management first. Tranexamic
acid reduces blood loss, and iron corrects anemia.
Surgery is reserved for failure of medical therapy or
severe symptoms.
, 4. Which of the following is the most reliable
biochemical marker for diagnosing premature
ovarian insufficiency (POI) in a 38-year-old woman
with oligomenorrhea?
A. Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH)
B. Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)
C. Estradiol
D. Inhibin B
Correct Answer: B. Follicle-stimulating hormone
(FSH)
Rationale: An elevated FSH (>25 IU/L) on two
occasions at least 4 weeks apart is diagnostic for
POI. AMH is supportive but not the primary
diagnostic criterion. Estradiol and inhibin B are less
specific.
5. A 55-year-old postmenopausal woman presents
with dysuria and recurrent urinary tract infections.
Which of the following is the most effective
preventive therapy?
A. Oral antibiotics prophylactically
