Description

Definition
For women who had symptoms of a sexually transmitted infection in the past 12 months, STIADEG8 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported seeking advice or treatment from a public rural health center for this problem. This response category is country-specific to Egypt.

Some samples in the "STIAD" series include multiple categories that can be consolidated into a single broad response. IPUMS-DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable, while also preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.

STIADEG8 is combined with STIADEG7 (public urban health center), and STIADEG10 (public maternal and child health (MCH) center) in STIADPUBHC (all public health centers) for the 2005 and 2014 Egypt samples.

IPUMS-DHS users interested in using STIADEG8 are encouraged to review STIADPUBHC for a more comprehensive response category.
