Article debunks myths related to pregnancy

China Daily  

A science popularization article shared by China's top health authority illustrating biological benefits of motherhood has gone viral and sparked discussions on health effects of pregnancy on women and factors that sway fertility decisions in a society seeing declining birthrates. The article, posted by the National Health Commission, on Wednesday, said that pregnancy is a challenging yet magnificent journey that will bring a series of physical and psychological changes to women. It said that childbearing can relieve menstrual cramps, reduce the chance of developing uterine fibroids and ovarian cysts, reduce the chance of catching ovarian cancer and breast cancer and even make mothers brighter. "An old saying goes that getting pregnant will result in three years of haziness, but in fact, pregnancy can make women brighter," said the article.
