Association between reproductive factors and fibromyalgia: a cross-sectional analysis of female health profiles

Key Points

• Fibromyalgia appears linked to grand multiparity, indicating that multiple pregnancies may increase chronic pain risk.
• The analysis reveals no correlation between age at first pregnancy and fibromyalgia occurrence.
• Cross-sectional assessment highlights reproductive history as influencing fibromyalgia susceptibility in women.
• Findings suggest that larger, long-term studies are needed to explore the causal relationship with fibromyalgia.
