The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that a positive Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) status (odds ratio (OR); 4.08, 95% CI; 3.47; 4.80), previous sterilization (OR; 0.72, 95% CI; 0.61; 0.85), current use of condoms (OR; 2.15, 95% CI; 1.22; 3.80), current use of Depot medroxyprogesterone acetate (DMPA) (OR; .. 1.37, 95% CI; 1.13; 1.65), current use ofNorethindrone enanthate (Net-EN) (OR; 1.39, 95% CI; 1.02; 1.88), currently married (OR; 0.71, 95% CI; 0.62; 0.81), mean number of live births (OR; 1.10, 95% CI; 1.06; 1.14), mean age in years (OR; 0.99, 95% CI; 0.98; 0.997) and currently employed (OR; 0.86, 95% CI; 0.74; 0.99) were significant in a model predicting the odds of infection with HR-HPV when adjusted for other sociodemographic, behavioural and biological variables and use of contraception. …”
