The odds of ever use of modern contraceptive of those in richest wealth quintile reduces (OR=1.85, C.I=1.55-2.22) when religion, levels of education, region and place of residence were used as control (model 2a).
The odds of currently using modern contraceptive among richest wealth quintile slightly varies (OR=1.61, C.I=1.28-2.02) when religion, levels of education, region and place of residence were used as control (model 2b).
In anticipation to link the relationship between wealth quintile and modern contraceptive use, we generated three models with the use of wealth quintile as the sole independent variable; wealth quintile with religion, levels of education, region and place of residence as control; wealth quintile with further variables as control.
