Description

Definition
FPCUROM (V3A05) indicates whether the woman was told by anyone about other potential contraceptive methods she could use when she first obtained her current method. Universes vary across samples; see Comparability.

Users should be careful to distinguish this variable from FPCUROMWKR (V3A06), which indicates whether the woman was told about other potential methods by a health or family planning worker.
