Description

Definition
HCMNG2 indicates whether the woman reported a private chemical/drug store as a source for male condoms. This response category is country-specific to Nigeria.

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

HCMNG2 is combined with HCMNG1 (private pharmacy) in HCMPRIVDRUG (all private, formal drug sources) for the 2008 and 2013 Nigeria samples. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using HCMNG2 are encouraged to review HCMPRIVDRUG for a more comprehensive response category.
