Description

Definition
FPEVUSECAL (V302A) indicates whether the woman had ever used a family planning method, and, if so, whether she used a method in the period covered by the calendar or prior to the start of the calendar. The standard DHS questionnaire includes a calendar of births, pregnancies, and contraceptive use, which typically includes the 5 years prior to a given interview.

IPUMS-DHS users may also be interested in FPEVUSE, a constructed variable that reports whether the respondent ever used contraception and, if so, whether modern methods or only traditional or folkloric methods were used.
