Based on data from the European Social Survey (2018), this paper examines ideas about ideal age to become a parent in 28 countries. Using multi-level models, it assesses impact of real timing childbirth and childlessness acceptance at country level while controlling for individual characteristics. The findings show that variability is relatively limited correlates significantly with childbearin...

OBJECTIVE To standardize serological surveillance to compare rubella susceptibility in Australia and 16 European countries, and measure progress towards international disease-control targets. METHODS Between 1996 and 2004, representative serum banks were established in 17 countries by collecting residual sera or community sampling. Serum banks were tested in each country and assay results wer...

Age is a significant factor influencing a woman's ability to conceive.

Women older than 35 years should receive expedited evaluation and treatment after 6 months of failed attempts to conceive, or earlier if clinically indicated.

Untreated behavioral disorders in pregnant women and in women of childbearing age pose physical and psychological safety concerns and are barriers to the well-being of both mother and neonate. The present paper underlines the importance of screening in Argentina for behavioral problems in women of childbearing age, particularly pregnant women and their newborns. Emphasized is the need to formal...

The discrepancy has been attributed to the use in the later studies of controls for unmeasured differences between young women who start childbearing early and those who do not, but could instead reflect changes in the effect of early childbearing over...

1 solution to the dimensionality problem raised by projection of individual age-specific fertility rates is the use of parametric curves to approximate the annual age-specific rates and a multivariate time series model to forecast the curve parameters. Such a method reduces the number of time series to be modeled for women 14-45 years of age from 32 to 40 (the number of curve parameters). In a...
