16In Italy, at least in the cohorts born up to the beginning of the twentieth century, wom-
en’s mortality in post-reproductive ages was influenced by fertility, with large progenies
(and, to a lesser extent, childlessness) leading to markedly lower survival chances. This
relationship proved strong enough to affect the female-to-male ratio in old age as
fertility declined. In this paper, we show that various measures of extra female survival
at high ages are closely connected to the fertility transition in Italy, and to its peculiar
historical and geographical evolution
