Description

Definition

For women who had symptoms of a sexually transmitted infection in the past 12 months, STIADBD15 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported seeking advice or treatment from an herbal doctor for this problem. This response category is country-specific to Bangladesh.

Some samples in the "STIAD" series include multiple categories that can be consolidated into a single broad response. IPUMS-DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable, while also preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.

STIADBD15 is combined with STIADBD16 (homeopathic doctor) in STIADPRIVHL (all traditional practitioners/healers) for the 2011 Bangladesh sample. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using STIADBD15 are encouraged to review STIADPRIVHL for a more comprehensive response category.
