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

The proportion of women married before age 18 is a standard DHS indicator in chapter 4 of the report. The coding is given on our GitHub site (https://github.com/DHSProgram/DHS-Indicators-Stata). You should be able to find what you want there. If you want to calculate this specific for calendar year of birth (v010) you can do that. The calculation should be restricted to women who are already age 18+ at the time of the survey. You should not need to use the date of the survey.
