Lf concentration (μg/ml) by gestation and in non-pregnant and sexually active women. Gestation determined by ultrasound at ANC1 in the pregnant cohort. Mean with 95% CI for each lunar month of gestation plus values for the non-pregnant group (Non-pregnant) and the subset of non-pregnant women who were known to be sexually active at the baseline assessment. The horizontal green line indicates non-pregnant mean; blue line indicates linear regression line of log (Lf) v gestation with a random effect to allow for correlations within participants. The slope is non-significant, P = 0.14
