Hello,
I am trying to find published state-level TFR's for Nigeria. They are not in the final report, but there is a publication that has this information for the North West of the country.
https://dhsprogram.com/pubs/pdf/OF12/OF12.NW.4.english.pdf
Are there similar publications for the other zones?
Thanks!

Is there a similar set produced for the 2008 NDHS?

Hi Liz,
Do you know if the state-level ASFR's, that must have been used to calculate the State level TFR's are publicly available anywhere?
Thanks,
Anne

Don't know about the official DHS ASFRs, but you might find this Stata package of interest (brought to you by infrequent forum commenter Bruno Schoumaker)

http://www.demographic-research.org/volumes/vol28/38/

TFR2 is designed specifically to calculate both total and age-specific fertility rates from DHS data, so it is super easy to use with very little setup.
