Add age at first sex question to help deal with NA entries in eversex #5 (but for the PHIA data, eversex is already determined based upon age at first sex? Is it the same for DHS?)
Could also be used for sex12m since age at first sex in combination with current age may be sufficient
If age is the same as age at first sex then it's in previous 12 months
If age is one year older than age at first sex then it could have been previous 12 months but not sure
Add other possible improvements to categories here as I go...
Tempting to say that "don't know" is more likely to be ">1" than it is 1 or 0. But there are some who respond that they have one sexual partner (lifetime) and then "don't know" how many in last 12 months
If lifetime partners is one, and the rest is don't know, then I'd imagine the risk is more than nosex12m but less than sexnonreg, so could be reasonable to put these people in sexcohab
People who have higher numbers of lifetime partners than average who respond "don't know" in partners in 12 months, stronger case to put into sexnonreg
