Ans:
D

Feedback:

Estrogen-containing birth control pills can predispose individuals with antiphospholipid syndrome to a thrombotic event. Exercise, nutrition, and blood sugar control are not particularly associated with management of antiphospholipid syndrome, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs have no noted relevance to the disease.
