Questions and instructions
Literal question
Which method are you using?
Interviewer instructions
Circle the code corresponding to the response given. Use the below codes.
'A' - Female sterilization
'B' - Male sterilization
'C' - Pill
'D' - Implants
'E' - Injections
'F' - IUD
'G' - Male condom
'H' - Female condom
'I' - Diaphragm
'K' - Lactational amenorrhea method
'L' - Periodic adstinence
'M' - Withdrawal
'X' - Other method
Do not prompt the woman. If she mentions more than one method, circle the code for each method that is currently being used. If she mentions a method you do not know of, write her description in the space provided in 'Other' and circle 'X'.
Since methods are effective for different lengths of time, you may have difficulty determining if a particular respondent is currently using a method. Current users of the pill should be taking pills daily. Methods such as condoms, vaginal methods, and withdrawal are used with each act of intercourse, so current users of these methods will have used them during the most recent acts of intercourse.
Other methods provide ongoing protection without daily or regular action by the woman. Contraceptive injections may be administered two to six months earlier and still provide protection. Implants provide protection for up to five years or until removed. An IUD protects against pregnancy until it is removed or expelled.
If needed, consider the last one month as 'current use'.
If the woman has been sterilized, you will circle 'A' for 'Female sterilization' as the current method. If the woman's current partner has been sterilized, you will circle 'B' MALE STERILIZATION as the current method. If, however, she is no longer married to (or living with) a former partner who had a vasectomy, this should not be noted as the current method. Lactational amenorrhoea method (LAM) should only be circled if the woman explicitly states that she is breastfeeding for contraceptive purposes or that she believes that she is being protected from the risk of pregnancy because she is breastfeeding.
