Women ’s long-term health and age at parity

ConclusionThe analysis with aggregated data showed that there is a large heterogeneity, which prevents conclusions being drawn about general trends for EU countries. The exception was for self-reported health and age of parity, for which is there was a statistical correlation across EU countries. The results reported here are expected to motivate further research on this topic in order to establish the long-term effects of each age of parity and the optimal age for first birth.
