Comparability - Standard DHS

An open-ended question on known sources for male condoms is included in the standard DHS questionnaire in Phases III forward. However, HCMCG7 is country-specific and is not part of the standard DHS questionnaire, but it is included as an integrated variable in IPUMS-DHS to increase comparability across samples.

For discussion of differences between phases in this variable series, see the Comparability - Standard DHS tab of HCMDK.
