Multiple delivery - what does this mean

Multiple delivery occurs when a woman gives birth to more than one baby at a time, either spontaneously or as a result of medical intervention such as fertility treatments or the use of fertility drugs. this can result in twins, triplets, or more babies being born at once.

What happens during the disease - multiple delivery

Multiple delivery is a condition in which a woman gives birth to more than one baby at the same time. it is caused by a combination of factors, including genetic predisposition, environmental influences, and hormonal imbalances. in some cases, multiple delivery can be triggered by fertility treatments or other medical interventions. the risk of multiple delivery increases as the number of embryos transferred into the uterus increases. additionally, certain medical conditions, such as diabetes, can increase the likelihood of multiple delivery.
