Does womenβs health matter for fertility? Evidence from Norwegian administrative data
Womenβs health status may affect their opportunities and preferences for children through various mechanisms. We examine the relationship between health and fertility using Norwegian registry data ...
"sickness absence is positively associated with transitions to parenthood. The uptake of long-term benefits is negatively associated with fertility. The impact of long-term health indicators on fertility is comparable in magnitude to education and income"
