Interviewer instructions

Some women may adopt contraception without the husband (partner)'s knowledge. A woman may be reluctant to admit this if there is anyone who might overhear her response. Consequently, it is very important to ensure privacy when you ask this question, either by moving away from any individuals who might be listening or by asking individuals who are nearby to move away.
