Description

For women who are currently using the Pill, FPPILLBRAND (V323) reports the brand name of the Pill that the respondent currently uses.

Comparability

Along with universe differences, the brands listed in FPPILLBRAND (V323) vary significantly across samples.

To maximize comparability, IPUMS-DHS uses composite coding, with the first digit indicating the following major categories:

  • 1000: Low-dose pills
  • 2000: High-dose pills
  • 3000: Progestin-only pills
  • 4000: Emergency contraception
  • 5000: Non-hormonal pills
  • 6000: Unspecified/unknown pills

The second, third, and fourth digits of FPPILLBRAND's codes distinguish between specific brands in these categories and provide detail only present in some samples.

Comparability - Standard DHS

FPPILLBRAND (V323) is included in Phases I through III and Phase V forward of the standard DHS questionnaire.

In Phase I, the standard questionnaire reads, "Please show me the package of pills you are now using. (RECORD NAME OF BRAND.)" Beginning in Phase II, if the respondent does not show the package of pills, this question is followed by, "Do you know the brand name of the pills you are now using? RECORD NAME OR BRAND." Beginning in Phase VII, the question wording changes to "What is the brand name of the pills you are using? IF DON'T KNOW THE BRAND, ASK TO SEE THE PACKAGE."
