Researchers analyzed data from a large sample of women in the UK Biobank.
They found that those who had given birth were less likely to experience these mental health conditions.
Having two children may be associated with the lowest risk of bipolar disorder and major depression.
Having more than two children did not provide additional mental health benefits.
Researchers used data collected at one point in time, but cannot definitively say that having children causes a lower risk of mental illness.
Other unmeasured factors, such as the level of support women receive from their families, could also be important.
The study participants were all from the UK Biobank, and most were of European descent.
