Section 12 — NEET-Pattern Practice Questions (Reproductive Health)
Chapter 3 is short but very high-yield for NEET — typically 1–3 questions most years, and they are almost always recall-based (definitions, lists, acronyms, year/number facts). With disciplined memorisation, this is a chapter where you can score full marks.
This section is a focused 28-question NEET-pattern practice quiz covering the whole chapter — RCH and programmes, population stabilisation, contraception, MTP, STIs, and infertility/ART.
Important note: These are NEET-pattern practice questions built on the recurring core concepts of the chapter. Do not treat them as exact authenticated NEET PYQs unless each question is separately matched with an official NEET paper and year.
How to use: Treat this like a timed mock — give yourself about 25 minutes for all 28 questions. Attempt first, then read each explanation carefully. Use the Mini Memory Capsule below to spot the recurring question patterns.
Mini Memory Capsule — NEET's Top 7 Hooks for Chapter 3
Almost every NEET question on this chapter is one of these patterns. Learn to name the hook the moment you read the stem:
1. WHO definition / RCH facts — "physical, emotional, behavioural and social"; Family Planning 1951. 2. Number & year recall — marriage ages (21 M / 18 F), MTP 1971, emergency contraception 72 hrs, fertile period day 10–17, lactational amenorrhea ~6 months. 3. Contraceptive classification — match method → category (natural / barrier / IUD / oral / injectable / surgical) and method → mechanism. 4. IUD generations — Lippes loop (non-medicated), CuT/Cu7/Multiload 375 (copper), Progestasert/LNG-20 (hormonal). 5. Saheli — non-steroidal, once-a-week oral pill (CDRI Lucknow) — NEET's favourite single-fact trap. 6. STI curable-vs-incurable — only 3 incurable: hepatitis-B, genital herpes, HIV/AIDS. 7. ART acronym → exact step — ZIFT (≤8 blastomeres → fallopian tube), IUT (>8 → uterus), GIFT (donor ovum → tube), ICSI (sperm into ovum), IUI (semen → uterus).
