Description

Definition
For women who had symptoms of a sexually transmitted infection in the past 12 months, STIADPUBHP indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported seeking advice or treatment from a public health post for this problem.

IPUMS-DHS users should be careful to distinguish this variable from STIADHPDISP, a standard variable indicating whether the woman sought advice from a health post or a dispensary.
