Conditional Logistic Regression: Odds of molecular-BV compared to a Lactobacillus-dominated community state type (CST) in douching cessation phase versus douching phase

	N	OR	95% CI	p-value	N	aOR§	95% CI	p-value
All samples	681	1.51	0.81, 2.86	0.20	676	1.77	0.89, 3.55	0.10
L. iners-dominated CST III removed	286	1.06	0.56, 2.03	0.85	283	1.21	0.61, 2.42	0.58
Stratified by primary motivation for douching

Remove menstrual blood	293	1.41	0.71, 2.77	0.32	289	1.72	0.87, 3.39	0.12

^§Conditional model adjusted for any sexual activity in the 24 hours prior to sampling and menses within 3 days of sampling. Participants who do not experience any changes in the outcome (molecular-BV vs Lactobacillus-dominated) are uninformative and do not contribute to the model.
