Comparability

Changes in the universe may affect comparability over time. In 1999, this question was asked of sample female adults ages 18-49 who are not pregnant and have had both ovaries removed AND sample female adults ages 50 and older who have not had a menstrual period in the past 3 or 12 months or who have never had a menstrual period and have had both ovaries removed. Beginning in 2010, this question was asked of all sample female adults ages 18 and older who have had both ovaries removed. (See Universe Tab for more details.) As a result, researchers should use caution when making comparisons across years.

Universe

1999: Female sample adults who are age 18 to 49 and not pregnant (or whose pregnancy status is unknown) OR who are age 50+ AND have not had a menstrual period in the past 3 or 12 months or who have never had a menstrual period or who had an unknown response for whether they had a period in the past 3 or 12 months AND who have had both ovaries removed.
2010; 2015: Female sample adults age 18+ who have had both ovaries removed.
