Using population-based registry data from 4 Nordic countries through 2015, we examined associations of perinatal characteristics with risk of maternal thyroid cancer. Cases were women diagnosed with thyroid cancer \u22652 years after last birth (n\u00a0= 7,425, 83% papillary). Cases were matched to controls (n\u00a0= 67,903) by mother\u2019s birth year, country, and county of residence. Odds ratios (ORs) were estimated using conditional logistic regression models adjusting for parity. Older age at first pregnancy, postpartum hemorrhage (OR\u00a0= 1.18, 95% (confidence interval) CI: 1.08, 1.29), and benign thyroid conditions (ORs ranging from 1.64 for hypothyroidism to 10.35 for thyroid neoplasms) were associated with increased thyroid cancer risk, as were higher offspring birth weight (per 1-kg increase, OR\u00a0= 1.17, 95% CI: 1.12, 1.22) and higher likelihood of offspring being large for gestational age (OR\u00a0= 1.26, 95% CI: 1.11, 1.43). Unmarried\/noncohabiting status (OR\u00a0= 0.91, 95% CI: 0.84, 0.98), maternal smoking (OR\u00a0= 0.75, 95% CI: 0.67, 0.84), and preterm birth (OR\u00a0= 0.90, 95% CI: 0.83, 0.98) were associated with reduced risk. Several factors (e.g., older age at first pregnancy, maternal smoking, goiter, benign neoplasms, postpartum hemorrhage, hyperemesis gravidarum, and neonatal jaundice) were associated with advanced thyroid cancer. These findings suggest that some perinatal exposures may influence maternal thyroid cancer risk.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/aje\/kwac163","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,9,21]],"date-time":"2022-09-21T20:45:52Z","timestamp":1663793152000},"page":"70-83","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Maternal
