*Non-pregnant comparison participants were selected among non-pregnant participants from the UC, frequently matched to participants experiencing incident pregnancy based on DAP scale score and time at risk of pregnancy (ie, time in the UC).
†Percentages may not add to 100% due to rounding.
‡P values derived from a series of bivariable mixed effects regression models.
