What was the probability of having twins in the year 1952?

The question is too ambiguous. Is it about a randomly selected person having twins in 1952 as opposed to another year? The incidence of multiple births has increased over the years as a result of IVF. Does the person (parent) have to be living now so as to be selected? Is it about an individual having twins in 1952 as opposed to other people who gave birth in 1952? For that you need data on twin and other births in 1952 for the whole world. I very much doubt if such statistics are available - certainly not reliable ones.

What is the reason to limit embryo implantation?

Multiple birth!!!!! with each insertion of an embryo it is possible all survive and grow to full term births. Having multiple birth can be hard on the mother to carry full term. However, it is not a guarantee that any of the embryos survive. You have to weigh your options and consider carefully what you are prepared to do. Doing multiple rounds of IVF is costly and the emotional roller coaster the mother is on can be a challenge to say the least. Therefore, doing multiple rounds is not practical. However, understand that if you insert 4-5 embryos you may get one to survive, all five or some combination in between. I speak from experience, my wife and I used IVF and inserted two embryos. Both survived and we now have two healthy, happy baby girls. However, carrying both to 38 weeks (according to our doctor 37 weeks is full term for multiple births) was hard on my wife and she was on restricted duty for much of the pregnancy. This included taking stairs and standing for long periods of time. Just know that if you are not sure you can handle 5 babies, factor that into your decision along with the advice from doctors, friends, and/or family members. These will be the people you rely on regardless of your decision and/or the outcome.

Are they any heatlh risks with in vitro fertilization?

I believe there are riks in any medical procedure or surgery. The main risk with in vitro fertilization is multiple births. Also, there is a possibility of genetic disorders among the children born under IVF, although it has been disputed by other studies on the matter. It is also very expensive and may need several attempts. IVF is currently being studied by scientists to determine exactly what the genetic risks are for the children born this way. They know there is an increased risk for certain rare genetic disorders, but they don't have enough information yet to clearly define what the risks are.
