Interviewer instructions
We want to know her opinions about various aspects of each method. Note that we are not asking her knowledge about a method. Rather, we want to know her perceptions or belief towards use, side effects, and safety of each method.

Ask women if all things considered it is easy to use the method or not in her opinion. For instance, a woman finds it is hard to use pills because she needs to remember the timing of taking a pill every day. Some women may say rhythm method is easy to use because she does not need to buy anything. But the other may say it is difficult to use as her menstrual cycle is not regular and it is hard to determine the timing of ovulation (e.g. fertile period).
