Question:
Does having numerous children affect a woman’s health?

Answer:
Having numerous children, as with anything else, has its pros and cons. More time spent breast feeding your babies decreases your risk of breast cancer, and the more babies you have decreases your risk of cancer of the uterus. However, multiple pregnancies can take their toll on your body, including the development of urinary incontinence and pelvic prolapse (dropping of the pelvic organs).
