Following is a response from DHS Research & Data Analysis Director, Tom Pullum:

A dot (.) in Stata means Not Applicable, or NA. It does not mean "missing", as in No Response or NR. With very few exceptions, the only time a case has a dot is when the question was not asked, because the response to some earlier question(s) made them ineligible for the question.
