来自多个学科的文献表明，成年早期肥胖的女性可能会在整个生育生涯中积累社会和生理上的生育障碍。这促使作者通过分析 1979 年全国青年纵向调查中 1,658 名女性参与者的数据，调查肥胖的年轻女性是否与较瘦的同龄人有不同的终生生育经历。研究样本成员是 1982 年 20 至 25 岁的未生育女性。作者检查了她们 1982 年至 2006 年间的生育经历，发现基线时肥胖的年轻女性与基线时体重正常的年轻女性相比，没有孩子的几率更高，生育意愿不佳的几率也更高。这些结果表明，肥胖对女性的生育经历有长期影响，包括女性是否生孩子、生孩子数量以及相对于她们想要的孩子数量。
Literature from multiple disciplines suggests that women who are obese during early adulthood may accumulate social and physiological impediments to childbearing across their reproductive lives. This led the authors to investigate whether obese young women have different lifetime childbearing experiences than leaner peers by analyzing data from 1,658 female participants in the 1979 National Longitudinal Survey of Youth. Study sample members were nulliparous women ages 20–25 in 1982. The authors examined their childbearing experiences between 1982 and 2006 and found that young women who were obese at baseline had higher odds of remaining childless and increased odds of underachieving fertility intentions than young women who were normal weight at baseline. These results suggest that obesity has long‐term ramifications for women's childbearing experiences with respect to whether and how many children women have in general and relative to the number of children they want.
