Description

Definition
FPUSINTENTMN (MV364) is a constructed variable, drawing on responses to multiple survey questions, that divides men into the following categories:

Men who are currently using a contraceptive method (either modern or traditional)
Men who are not now using contraception but intend to do so in the future
Men who are neither using contraception now nor intend to do so in the future
Men (in a minority of samples) who never had sex.


IPUMS-DHS users are encouraged to review FPMETHNOWMN (MV312) and FPUSPLANMN (MV362) for additional information on the variables used to construct FPUSINTENTMN.
