Description

Definition

FPPROBMSTS2 (V308_07) reports the woman's opinion about the main problem, if any, with using male sterilization as a family planning method. Interviewers collected the information through an open-ended question and then recorded the woman's response using country-specific codes.

IPUMS-DHS interested in using FPPROBMSTS2 may also be interested in FPPROBMSTS, which coded the woman's response using standard response categories.
