Thanks for investigating this. I did in the end do a search for variables that contained labels with the strings "assisted", "reproductive", "technology", "IVF" and "fertility". I saw that in some of the Colombia surveys there are questions about fertility treatment, but that is it. It's good to have it confirmed from you.

I have been doing some further research into this using aggregated multiple birth data, and I am leaning towards thinking that ART is probably not a significant contributing factor to multiple births. If any of your colleagues would like to know more I would of course be happy to discuss it.

Thanks again!
