Incidence and predictors of pregnancy among reproductive-age women in an ART clinic of public health facilities in Arsi zone, southeastern ethiopia: a five-year retrospective cohort study
In this study, the incidence of pregnancy among women on ART was found to be notable. Pregnancy incidence among women on ART was found to be negatively associated with being 35 years of age or older, being in a non-married couple, being widowed or divorced, and being a single mother. To lower the risks of pregnancy, effective counseling programs must be created, with an emphasis on young and married women living with HIVAIDS.
