Twin pregnancy - what does this mean

Twin pregnancy occurs when two eggs are fertilized by two separate sperm, resulting in two separate embryos. this can occur naturally or as a result of fertility treatments such as in vitro fertilization.

What happens during the disease - twin pregnancy

Twin pregnancy occurs when two embryos implant in the uterus at the same time and both embryos continue to develop. this is due to an increase in the production of the hormone fsh, which stimulates the ovaries to produce multiple eggs instead of the usual single egg. if two eggs are released and both become fertilized, the result is a twin pregnancy.
