Associations between childbirth, hospitalization and disability pension: a cohort study of female twins.
<h4>Background</h4>As the literature on long-term effects of childbirth on risk of morbidity or permanent work incapacity (DP) is limited, we aimed to study associations of childbirth with hospitalization and DP, adjusting for familial factors.<h4>Methods</h4>This cohort stud...

At least one in the twin pair had their first childbirth 1994-2009.

Hospitalization after first childbirth was associated with a higher HR of DP. Those hospitalized at least once after their first childbirth had a three-fold DP risk (HR: 3.2; 95% CI 1.1-9.6), DP due to mental diagnoses (HR: 3.2; 1.2-8.8), and of DP due to musculoskeletal diagnoses (HR: 6.1; 1.6-22.9).
