Description
FPPROBOMS2 (V308_10) reports the woman's opinion about the main problem, if any, with using some other method as a family planning method. Interviewers collected the information through an open-ended question and then recorded the woman's response using country-specific codes. The meaning of "other" depends on the specific methods identified in a given sample.
IPUMS-DHS interested in using FPPROBOMS2 may also be interested in FPPROBOMS, which coded the woman's response using standard response categories.
