Literal question
Now I would like to talk about family planning - the various ways or methods that a couple can use to delay or avoid a pregnancy.
Which ways or methods have you heard about?
Implants.
PROBE: Women can have one or more small rods placed in their upper arm by a doctor or nurse which can prevent pregnancy for one or more years.

3) Q401b: EVER USE
Then, for each method with 'YES' code selected in 401a, ask 401b. Select 'YES' if method has ever been used, then ask the same question for each method with 'YES' selected in 401a.
Note that Q401b for FEMALE AND MALE STERLIZATION need to be phrased differently as they are permanent methods. You could say:
“Have you had an operation to avoid having any more children?
“Has your husband/partner had an operation to avoid having any more children?”
