Hi Bridgette,

This is incredibly helpful, though I'm not sure that it quite answers my question (though maybe it does and I'm missing something).

My question is this: my understanding is that individuals who report a reason for contraceptive non-use (v3a08a-z) are individuals who have had sex in the last 12 months (v853a-c > 0). However, of the 139,773 individuals that report a reason for contraceptive non-use in India, only 12.2% report how many times they had sex in the last 12 months. It does not seem to be related to age of the respondent or marital status, so I'm not sure how to interpret the lack of data for the question about frequency of sex.

Thanks,

Blake
