abstract = {While childbearing protects against risk of epithelial
ovarian cancer (EOC), few studies have explored the impact
on maternal EOC risk of sex of offspring, which may affect
the maternal environment during pregnancy. We performed a
pooled analysis among parous participants from 12
case-controls studies comprising 6872 EOC patients and 9101
controls. Odds ratios (ORs) and $95\%$ confidence intervals
(CIs) were calculated using multivariable logistic
regression for case-control associations and polytomous
logistic regression for histotype-specific associations, all
adjusted for potential confounders. In general, no
associations were found between offspring sex and EOC risk.
However, compared to bearing only female offspring, bearing
one or more male offspring was associated with increased
risk of mucinous EOC (OR = 1.45; $95\%$ CI = 1.01-2.07),
which appeared to be limited to women reporting menarche
before age 13 compared to later menarche (OR = 1.71 vs 0.99;
P-interaction = 0.02). Bearing increasing numbers of male
offspring was associated with greater risks of mucinous
tumors (OR = 1.31, 1.84, 2.31, for 1, 2 and 3 or more male
offspring, respectively; trend-p = 0.005). Stratifying by
hormonally-associated conditions suggested that compared to
bearing all female offspring, bearing a male offspring was
associated with lower risk of endometrioid cancer among
women with a history of adult acne, hirsutism, or polycystic
ovary syndrome (OR = 0.49, $95\%$ CI = 0.28-0.83) but with
higher risk among women without any of those conditions (OR
= 1.64 $95\%$ CI = 1.14-2.34; P-interaction = 0.003).
Offspring sex influences the childbearing-EOC risk
relationship for specific histotypes and conditions. These
findings support the differing etiologic origins of EOC
histotypes and highlight the importance of EOC
histotype-specific epidemiologic studies. These findings
also suggest the need to better understand how pregnancy
affects EOC risk.},
