Pregnancy is a sporadic event in women life, but it has been suggested that it may have long-lasting consequences. Parity would be positively associated with cardiovascular risk factors. And, lower exposure to estrogen among parous women would be a possible mechanism. Furthermore, metabolic and hemodynamic adaptations due to pregnancy could have potential long-term consequences on women’s life, by increasing body mass index, blood pressure, risk of diabetes, or impairing lipids control. This thesis was aimed at assessing the association of parity with metabolic cardiovascular outcomes among young women. The thesis was composed by three manuscripts. Firstly, we systematically reviewed the evidence on the association between parity and metabo...
