Description

For women who had ever successfully removed a pregnancy, ABORMEDGIVEN reports whether the woman's provider offered something to ease any pain at the time of the pregnancy removal event. In some samples, this variable also reports whether the medicine did anything to stop the pain.

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

Comparability

In the Burkina Faso 2021, Democratic Republic of Congo 2021, and Niger 2022 sample, the questionnaire included responses to differentiate whether the medicine did anything to ease the pain the woman experienced, but in Cote d'Ivoire and Nigeria, the questionnaire only allowed the woman to indicate whether she had been offered medicine for pain.
