Factors Influencing Natural Twin Conception
- Genetics, maternal age (30s and above), and certain ethnic backgrounds can increase the likelihood of twins.
-
Lifestyle and Dietary Considerations
- Consuming dairy products and maintaining a healthy weight may slightly boost the chances of twins.
-
Medical and Family History
- A family history of twins, especially on the maternal side, can influence twin conception.

When to Consult a Specialist
- If seeking personalized advice, consult a fertility specialist or obstetrician.

View allI have a large 17 cm fibroid in the fundus area of my uterus, coming from the posterior myometrium. It's causing pain on the left side of my abdomen, but no lower abdominal pain. My USG shows my uterus is 9.4 cm. Are there any treatment options besides surgery that could help with this?
Yes, there are alternative treatments to surgery for a large fibroid like yours, though surgical removal (myomectomy or hysterectomy) is often considered the most effective long-term solution. If you're looking to avoid surgery, options include medications to manage symptoms or address the fibroid itself

I'm 14 weeks pregnant and just had a cervical cerclage because my cervix measures 2.4cm. My doctor said I had a vaginal infection and recommended using Cansoft vaginal suppositories for three days. I inserted the Cansoft last night and noticed a watery discharge mixed with some remnants of the capsule. This morning, I still felt a little wet with more watery discharge. Is this something normal after using Cansoft, or should I be worried about a possible water leak?
