Description

STIWSORES (V786G) indicates whether the woman reported "genital sores or ulcers" as a possible symptom of STI (sexually transmitted infection) in women.

Comparability

Along with universe differences, STIWSORES (V786G) has some variation in question wording that broadly applies to the "symptoms of STI" series. For discussion of question wording in this variable series, see the comparability section of STIWDK (V786Z).

Women who had not heard of sexually transmitted infections apart from AIDS were not asked about STI symptoms, and they were automatically coded "No" in this series, unless otherwise noted in the comparability text below. For the variable indicating whether the woman has heard of STIs other than AIDS, see STIHEARDOTH (V785).

Comparability - Standard DHS

STIWSORES (V786G) appears in phase IV of the Standard DHS questionnaire but is not included in subsequent phases of the standard questionnaire.
