Description

Definition

HCMGN1 indicates whether the woman reported a public health center as a source for male condoms. This response category is country-specific to Guinea.

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

HCMGN1 is combined with HCMGN2 (public health post) in HCMPUBHC (public health centers and health posts) for the 1999 Guinea sample. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using HCMGN1 are encouraged to review HCMPUBHC for a more comprehensive response category.
