Note: In the GDHS, following a section on knowledge of family planning methods, women were asked: "Are you currently doing something or using any method to delay or avoid getting pregnant?” In the follow-up survey, after identity verification, women are asked "I’d like to begin by confirming the information I received. Are you currently doing something or using any method to delay or avoid getting pregnant?" If the answer was no, they are asked: "What about the rhythm method? What about withdrawal?"
