WRAP Database Ovary Removal Questions

This explains how the questions related to Ovary removal have evolved during the course of the WRAP Study and the WRAP Database fields involved.

The Ovary removal questions had responses where the content was identical, but order of responses different between Entry Assessment (New) / 2nd Wave (Old) 
and Subsequent Wave (New) and Waves 3 onward (Old).  Add new variable for New Entry Assessment and Old Visit 2 data points.  

All of the responses were originally placed in the "OvaOut" field of the "WomensQuestions" table.  This caused some confusion. 

The values of the "OvaOut" field have now been also placed into the "OvaOut_InitialResponseSet" or "OvaOut_SubsqResponseSet" fields.

Note that for more recent data entry, the "OvaOut" field may be blank, but there may be a value in the "OvaOut_InitialResponseSet" or
"OvaOut_SubsqResponseSet" fields.

                   or both of your ovaries taken out? (Mark only one)
