Description
FSNOTREATEMB indicates whether the woman reported embarrassment as a reason for not getting treatment for fistula, in response to an open-ended question.
When children are chosen as the unit of analysis, the woman respondent indicates the mother of the child.
Comparability
Apart from universe differences and slight differences in question wording, FSNOTREATEMB has no comparability problems.
Comparability - Standard DHS
FSNOTREATEMB is not included in any phase of the standard DHS questionnaire, but it is included in both phases (for use with Phases VI and VII of the standard questionnaire) of the module on fistula.
