EXAM QUIZZES WITH VERIFIED ANSWERS .
Primary Amenorrhea - correct Answers -The failure of any menses to appear is termed "primary
amenorrhea," and evaluation is commenced either (1) at age 14 years if neither menarche nor any
breast development has occurred or if height is in the lowest 3% for ethnicity, or (2) at age 16
years if menarche has not occurred
Secondary Amenorrhea - correct Answers -Secondary amenorrhea is defined as the absence of
menses for 3 consecutive months in women who have passed menarche.
Primary Amenorrhea symptoms and physical exam - correct Answers -Patients with primary
amenorrhea require a thorough history and physical examination to look for signs of the
conditions noted above. Headaches or visual field abnormalities implicate a hypothalamic or
pituitary tumor. Signs of pregnancy may be present. Blood pressure elevation, acne, and
hirsutism should be noted. Short stature may be seen with an associated GH or thyroid hormone
deficiency. Short stature with manifestations of gonadal dysgenesis indicates Turner syndrome.
Olfactory deficits are seen in Kallmann syndrome. Obesity and short stature may be signs of
Cushing syndrome. Tall stature may be due to eunuchoidism or acromegaly. Hirsutism or
virilization suggests excessive testosterone.
An external pelvic examination plus a rectal examination should be performed to assess hymen
patency and the presence of a uterus.
Primary Amenorrhea labs - correct Answers -The initial endocrine evaluation should include
serum FSH, LH, PRL, total and free testosterone, TSH, FT4, and beta-hCG (pregnancy test).
