Hello All,
I am noting significant differences between the Zonal Fact Sheets and Stat Compiler data.
For example- the Zonal Fact sheet for South West Nigeria http://dhsprogram.com/pubs/pdf/OF23/OF23.pdf- notes that the modern contraceptive prevelance rate for South West Nigeria is 38%. The Stat compiler data notes 24.9% for the South West.
This is true for all states.
Any wisdom?
Thanks!

Never mind- zonal fact sheets report any contraceptives vs. modern contraceptives- will go back to the reports to get modern contraceptive rates by states.
