What are the secrets and techniques for having twins?

Mothers think that one child is lonely, and two children will double the happiness of the family, so mothers want twins. So what are twins? What are the secrets and techniques of giving birth to twins? The following editor will introduce you in detail.

What are twins?

Twins are twins of different genders, that is, dizygotic twins. Only in this case can twins be born. There is a 50% chance of dizygotic twins being twins of different genders. The characteristic of monozygotic twins is that the blood circulation of the two fetuses is interconnected through the placenta. Therefore, the fetuses of monozygotic twins have exactly the same blood type and gender, and their faces are difficult to recognize. Having twins is related to genes, race, drugs, etc. The country with the highest probability of having twins in the world is 15/1000, while the probability in my country is about 5/1000, and the probability of having twins of different genders is much smaller.

How to have twins

Taking folic acid before pregnancy to increase ovulation

A Swedish medical research institute pointed out that women taking folic acid have nearly twice the chance of having twins than women not taking it. Experts estimate that folic acid supplements may increase the frequency of ovulation, allowing multiple eggs to enter the uterus, thus producing twins.

Women with the twin gene

This is because the genes that determine whether or not one can conceive twins are mainly on the mother's side, which means that if the mother has twins, the chance of giving birth to twins again will be as high as 1.7%.

IVF

Usually when doing IVF, in order to ensure the quality of the fertilized eggs, doctors will generally select several more eggs for fertilization. If a woman's physical condition allows two embryos to develop at the same time, and she wants to have twins, she can ask the doctor to keep two embryos for her to conceive a pair of twin babies. If the implanted sperm and eggs are both active, it is easy to have twins.

What to eat to help you have twins

Eat more alkaline foods

If you want to have a boy, you should eat more alkaline foods. The same is true for twins. First, you need to create an environment that is conducive to having twins. An alkaline body environment is more conducive to the survival of sperm, which can allow more sperm and egg cells to combine, thus increasing the probability of having twins. Therefore, if you want to have twins, mothers should eat more alkaline foods, such as fresh vegetables, milk, oranges, bananas, kelp, etc.

Take Chinese herbal medicine

Women who take certain Chinese medicines for infertility treatment have a higher chance of having twins, but it should be noted that when using this method, you should consult your doctor in advance about which types of Chinese medicines for infertility treatment can promote the pregnancy of twins and determine whether these medicines will have adverse effects on the body. (A medicine called Qilin Pills is effective, for reference only, but not recommended)

This is because sweet potatoes contain something similar to estrogen, which helps to give birth to children, so if you want to get pregnant with twins, you can try it.
