Classes of polynomial non-autonomous differential equations of degree $n$ are considered. An explicit bound on the size of the coefficients is given which implies that each equation in the class has exactly $n$ complex periodic solutions. In most of the classes the upper bound can be improved when we consider real periodic solutions. We present a proof to a recent conjecture about the number of periodic solutions. The results are used to give upper bounds for the number of limit cycles of polynomial two-dimensional systems.
