Young women who give birth to children under the age of 20 are at greater risk of growing fat at a later age than their peers who did not give birth in their youth, say US scientists. "The results of our study are potentially important, because adolescence is a critical period of development, when a predisposition to obesity is laid," said Dr. Erica Ganderson (Erica P. Gunderson), whose study was published in the journal Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine.

For all women, pregnancy is always a risk factor for overweight problems, and there is evidence that pregnancy and childbirth at a young age can have a much greater impact on weight and the accumulation of fats in the future, US scientists found, according to an online edition for girls and women from 14 to 35 years old Pannochka. net During the study, Dr. Erica Ganderson (Erica Ganderson) and her colleagues studied information on 1890 women, who were observed when they were 10-20 years old. 17% of them gave birth to a child between 15 and 19 years, 4% gave birth to two children, 10% became pregnant, but did not give birth to a child and 69% did not become pregnant. In general, at the age of 18-19, 28% of white women and 40% of African American women suffered from overweight or obesity. Also, from obesity suffered 40% of white girls and 57% of blacks who had a child. Both the white and the Pharao-American women who gave birth to children in their youth had fuller thighs and waists, and they were generally more complete than their nulliparous contemporaries.

"Excessive fat deposition in youth can signal the onset of problems with being overweight and obese, and also lead to increased levels of lipids, blood pressure and insulin in adulthood," warns Dr. Gunderson.. Scientists also noted that women who first gave birth to a child under the age of 20 are more at risk of developing heart disease. Researchers hope that further research will be conducted that will study how weight in adolescence during pregnancy affects a figure and the health of a woman in adulthood.
