Can twins be conceived on different days?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Yes, twins can be conceived on different days, if another ovum gets fertilized by a sperm cell days after the first one. This condition is called Superfetation.

Conception on Different Days: Twins can indeed be conceived on different days, a phenomenon known as superfetation. This occurs when a woman ovulates more than once in a cycle and has intercourse on different days, leading to fertilization of eggs at different times.
-
Superfetation: This rare event results in twins conceived days apart during an initial pregnancy.
-
Typical Twin Conception: Usually, twins are conceived simultaneously, either from one fertilized egg splitting (identical twins) or two eggs fertilized at the same time (fraternal twins).
-
Medical Rarity: Superfetation is extremely uncommon in humans but has been documented.

My mom was just diagnosed with a grossly enlarged uterus and an intramural fibroid, plus her hemoglobin is at 5. Is surgery the only way to treat this or are there other options we can explore? We're really worried and want to understand all possible treatments.
No, surgery isn't always the only way to treat an enlarged uterus and intramural fibroids, even with low hemoglobin. There are several non-surgical options available, including medication and procedures like uterine artery embolization, depending on the severity and individual needs. Surgery, such as myomectomy or hysterectomy, may be necessary in some cases, but it's not always the first or only choice.
