Definition
For women who had symptoms of a sexually transmitted infection in the past 12 months, STIADNP1 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported seeking advice or treatment from a public health post for this problem. This response category is country-specific to Nepal.
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.
STIADNP1 is combined with STIADNP2 (public sub-health post) in STIADPUBHP (all public health posts) for the 2006 and 2011 Nepal samples. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using STIADNP1 are encouraged to review STIADPUBHP for a more comprehensive response category.
