General Notes:
Data coverage:  The file shows the most recent estimates available to the Population Division of the Department of Economic and Social Affairs of the United Nations Secretariat as of March 2014.
ISO Code:  The column entitled "ISO code" contains numerical codes that identify in a unique way each geographical unit used.  Codes for countries and areas are fully compliant with international standards set by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). 
Year(s): The column entitled "Year(s)" refers to the year(s) when the survey was carried out.
Age:  The column entitled "Age" refers to the age group of the population the data pertain to.
Contraceptive prevalence: Contraceptive prevalence is the percentage of women who are currently using, or whose sexual partner is currently using, at least one method of contraception, regardless of the method used. It is usually reported for married or in union women aged 15 to 49. A union involves a man and a woman regularly cohabiting in a marriage-like relationship.
Modern methods: Modern methods of contraception include female and male sterilization, oral hormonal pills, the intra-uterine device (IUD), the male condom, injectables, the implant (including Norplant), vaginal barrier methods, the female condom and emergency contraception. 
Traditional methods:  Traditional methods of contraception include rhythm (periodic abstinence), withdrawal, prolonged abstinence, breastfeeding, douching, lactational amenorrhea method (LAM) and folk methods.
Source: The column entitled "Source" contains acronyms indicating multi-country survey programmes.  The user should refer to the "Sources" worksheet to see the survey programme corresponding to each acronym.
Survey name: In countries where a national survey was the source of data, the name of the survey is indicated in this column.
Notes: The columns entitled "Notes" indicate where the sampled population was not representative of married or in-union women of reproductive-age, where a different definition of contraceptive prevalence was used and where specific methods were included in the categories of other modern or traditional methods.
Two dots (..): Indicate that data are not available or not separately reported.
