What birthday is repeated more throughout the world?

It is unlikely to know exactly how many people come to the world daily, considering that there are remote and so isolated places where birth and death figures are not handled.Also, for logical reasons, we can only talk about approximations when our nature is somehow unpredictable.But it is estimated that about 249 babies are born every minute ...if we put it another way, every day the Earth receives an approximate 358,437 new humans .

However, an interesting study by Harvard University reveals that there is a specific day in which more people celebrate their anniversary of life.Do you belong to this group? Join us to discover which birthday is repeated more!

What birthday is repeated more worldwide?

What birthday is repeated more throughout the world? world? This curious incognito was solved by a research team from Harvard University, headed by economist Amitabh Chadra.They analyzed the birth record in America, between 1973 and 1999 , showing that September is the month in which coincides with the highest number of births.

And not only did they reveal the month in which more birthdays occur, but also the day, being on September 16 the date in the one that more people are born with it they extracted that in December and January is when more pregnancies occur.

We do not know if this is part of the New Year's resolutions for some couples, if the festive spirit that characterizes us on these holidays, it encourages women to be especially fertile or if we are more willing to procreate in that period (alcohol could also influence), but based on a study that specifically addresses the influence of seasonal changes in conception, enco We introduce some hypotheses that could explain this phenomenon:

According to the report, that the highest percentage of pregnancies take place in winter and that are conceived in autumn, could be related to the deterioration of sperm quality during the summer, due to the changes in the length of daylight .The pituitary-ovarian function also experiences variations with seasonal differences, as, as with seminal viability, ovule quality or receptivity Endometrial is committed to the seasonal theme.
