Adjusted for race (white, black, other), age (<20, 20-29, 30-39, and ≥40 years), parity (0, 1, or ≥2 live births), average hours of sleep (continuous), and percent body fat, menstrual cycle length, and dietary vitamin A intake (quartiles).

Number of observations within each category in the adjusted model. Women could contribute up to 4 observations each (2 observations from 2 cycles).

The unadjusted model was fit on 907 observations from 248 women. The adjusted model was fit on 874 observations from 236 women.

4

The unadjusted model was fit on 893 observations from 248 women. The adjusted model was fit on 860 observations from 236 women.

5

The unadjusted model was fit on 851 observations from 247 women. The adjusted model was fit on 822 observations from 236 women.
