Greetings,

I'm hoping to reconcile some information concerning measurement of reasons for non-use of contraception, both among current and future (intended) non-users. I've found that Recode VI indicates that both metrics are "no longer part of the DHS VI core questionnaire, but the variable is kept in the DHS VI recode." We nonetheless find both questions in the round 6 questionnaire (Q709), though surveys from that period appear to inconsistently report on one or both indicators. Could you please explain why this is the case?

I checked the round VII questionnaire, and it does include reasons for non-use, this time in Q810. Does this mean that both metrics will be consistently reported moving forward?

Thanks for your help.

Best,
Kaja
