a
Observations for IUC and implant knowledge include only responses of those reporting awareness of the method and exclude inappropriate responses and nonresponses.
b
Adjusted for age and number of living children.
c
HIV-infected women were 1.59 times more likely to not want more children when adjusted for age and number of living children.
