Description

For women who are currently using a family planning method and have used at least four other family planning methods in the last 2 years (since September 2017), FPPREVMETH4 reports which method the woman used just before her third most recent method.

Enumerators were instructed to not include the current method use, and to only select the current method type if the woman used it continuously, stopped, and restarted during the 2-year period.

The question associated with this variable was included in the female questionnaire.
