Interviewer instructions

This section collects information relating to the use of various contraceptive methods, which a couple can use to avoid or delay pregnancy. A respondent may consider the topic of contraception and family planning a personal matter, and she may feel embarrassed to talk about it. To overcome her embarrassment, you must show that you do not feel embarrassed or uncomfortable in any way. Ask these questions as if they were no different from any other questions in the questionnaire. If she is hesitant to answer any of these questions, reassure her that everything she says will be treated confidentially and that the same questions are being asked of women all over the country.

Q409 asks a respondent which method she prefers to switch to when she stops the current method. Record the most preferred method she would like to switch to.
