If you use IPUMS-DHS (www.idhsdata.org), there is a geography variable that harmonizes regions across survey years. It is called GEO_IA1992_2005. You will find it under TOPICS -> GEOGRAPHY -> Integrated Geography.

IPUMS-DHS is original DHS data harmonized. It allows you to easily download a single integrated file if you are interested in viewing surveys across years or across countries. Currently, it includes the data from the IR, KR, and BR files for most African countries and India. Men, household members, and several more south Asian countries will be added by Summer 2018.
