The options of the question are :

"I will need to use backup contraception if I miss a pill."

"Irregular bleeding is an indication that I should stop using this drug."

"The mini-pill is safer than combination OCs and is just as effective."

"The progestin-only mini-pill will prevent me from ovulating."

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

When a patient is taking a progestin- only pill then it should be taken for at least 2 days in order for the backup.

Most of the women stop taking pills because of inconvenience cause due to irregular bleeding.

But the intake of oral pills should not be stopped and should be taken for avoiding the pregnancy.

The irregular bleeding is not an indication to stop taking medicine so it should be continued as such.

klemol [59]

Answer:

d. Training to relax when confronted with anxiety-arousing stimuli

Explanation:

Systematic desensitization is a type of technique used in cognitive therapy and it is based on the principle of classical conditioning.

The goal of this technique is to remove a phobia or a stimuli that causes anxiety and substitute it with a relaxation response.

This technique has three phases:

  1. The patient is taught deep relaxation and breathing exercises.
  2. The patient creates a fear hierarchy starting at stimuli that provoke the least anxiety and building up to the most fear provoking ones.
  3. The patient starts at the bottom of the hierarchy with the least unpleasant stimuli and practices the relaxation technique.  

The patient practices this relaxation until the stimuli doesn't provoke any anxiety and then he continues with the next stimuli in the hierarchy until he reaches the top stimuli and the anxiety is removed.

Therefore, we can say that relaxation when confronted with anxiety-arousing stimuli is a really important part of systematic desensitization.  Therefore, the correct answer is d. Training to relax when confronted with anxiety-arousing stimuli
