Dear Bridgette,
I'd like to ask about v249 variable on "age at first menstrual period" in 2022 Kenya DHS. It seems to be missing on ~50% of the sample, and I noticed that the missing cases are those for which variable v447 on "results of measurement - height/weight" is equal to "no measurement found in household". Does it mean that age at first period was collected only among women who were chose for anthropomorphic data collection? If that is the case, could you advise how to use this data? Are there any special weights to make sure that, when doing analysis, results are nationally representative?
Thank you,
Ewa
