How to conceive twins naturally

Many mothers want to have twins. This is mainly because the probability of having twins is relatively small. However, after becoming pregnant with twins, giving birth to two children at once is also considered by many people to be a lucky thing. Of course, not everyone can conceive twins, but with some efforts, you can increase the chances of conceiving twins. So, what measures can help women conceive twins naturally?

1. Find a spouse with twin genes

Generally speaking, women only release one egg each month. If two eggs are released at once and fertilized at the same time, the chances of having twins increase. If a woman is already pregnant with twins, her chance of giving birth to twins is as high as 1.7%, much higher than that of a man.

2. Take folic acid

A Swedish medical research institute pointed out that women who take folic acid have nearly twice the chance of conceiving twins than women who do not take it. Folic acid supplements may increase the frequency of ovulation, allowing multiple eggs to enter the uterus and thus produce twins.

3. Ovulation-inducing drugs

By taking ovulation-inducing drugs, women can release multiple eggs every month, greatly increasing the chances of having twins. Ovulation-stimulating drugs have adverse reactions such as dizziness, nausea, and liver and kidney damage, and should be taken under the guidance of a doctor.

4. Increase hormones

The main effect of hormone drugs is to stimulate the anterior pituitary gland to secrete gonadotropin, thereby inducing ovulation. This type of medicine may cause adverse reactions such as abdominal pain, breast swelling and pain, nausea, and dizziness, and should be taken under the guidance of a doctor.

5. IVF

In vitro fertilization refers to the use of artificial methods to fertilize eggs and sperm in vitro and carry out early embryonic development, and then transplant multiple fertilized eggs into the mother's uterus for development. There are relevant health regulations: those over 35 years old can implant 3 implants, and those under 35 years old can only implant 2 implants at most, in order to minimize the birth rate of twins or multiple births.

6. Taking Chinese herbal medicine can help you get pregnant and have twins

Some Chinese medicines for treating infertility have a higher chance of conceiving 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 can promote the pregnancy of twins and determine whether these medicines will cause adverse effects on the body.

7. Eating more sweet potatoes can help you have twins

Sweet potatoes contain a hormone similar to estrogen, which helps in fertility. Studies have shown that Yoruba women in Nigeria eat a lot of sweet potatoes, and this tribe has the highest chance of giving birth to twins in the world. Therefore, if you want to get pregnant with twins, you can try it.
