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

There is a more recent version of this data file, NGBR7BFL.dta. It should make no difference, but there must have been some minor corrections to 7A. If you open the file with Stata and then enter "describe g" you will get a list of all the FGM variables. The labels for g109 through g117 begin with "na", for Not Applicable. The questions that produced those variables were not asked in this survey. Decisions about including a module, and then about selecting questions for the module, are made by the country, not by DHS. We cannot give you access to the data because the data were not collected.
