For women who had any pregnancies terminated through abortion, miscarriage or stillbirth prior to the survey's birth calendar, PRECALTERMCMC (V242) reports the century month date of the last pregnancy termination before the start of the birth calendar.
For information on how to interpret and calculate century month dates, see DOBCMC.
All samples in PRECALTERMCMC use the Gregorian calendar. For similar data for Ethiopian samples using the Ethiopian calendar, see PRECALTERMCMC_ET.
