Description
Definition
For men who are not currently using a contraceptive method, FPYNOTUSMN (MV375A) reports why the man is not using a family planning method to avoid pregnancy.
Responses are grouped into broad categories of "not married,' "other low fertility risk," "wants children," "opposition to use," "lack of knowledge," "method-related," and "other," each beginning with a different first digit. Subcategories under these broad headings are distinguished by the second digit.
