New research finds summer-born women have fewer children

contemporary Austrian men we found that the average number of children was highest among men born in spring and lowest among those born in the autumn with intermediate values found in men born in summer and winter, indicating that males and females might respond differently to the season of birth."

Dr Huber said there could be many possible causes for the association between birth month and reproductive performance. "It could be the effects of the conditions experienced during fetal and neonatal life on early pre and post natal development. In temperate zones the external environment varies with the seasons, so the conditions experienced early in life are the result of a variety of seasonally and socially varying environmental and maternal factors that may all affect early development, causing potential effects on later life events."

However, Dr Huber concluded that there could be other factors that might also play a role.
