All models account for repeated outcomes within women.

aFully adjusted models controlled for HIV status (including an interaction term with main exposure), age, socioeconomic status (employment, race, income), BMI, depression, recent use of intravenous drugs, marijuana, and alcohol. Modeling details given in text.

bSensitivity analyses relied on a reduced model for convergence. The main reduced adjusted model controlled for HIV status (including an interaction term with main exposure), depression, recent use of marijuana and alcohol.

cThis model did not control for viral load or CD4+ cell count, which are affected by ART/HAART use in the last six months.

dModel also controlled for use of HAART. Suppression was defined as a viral load <1000 copies/ml.
