its not likely that you will have twins then... normally you will not have a chance of having twins unless your mother side of the family has a history of twins it matter if you dads side does or not and also if you are over the age of 35 years old. Most likely if your siblings are twins the there is a possibility that they them selves or their children will have twins..

Is it more likey for a fraternal twin to give birth to a set of fraternal twins than to just one baby?

No, being a fraternal twin does not increase the likelihood of giving birth to fraternal twins. The chances of having fraternal twins are determined by the mother's genetics and are not influenced by being a twin herself.


Can you explain the unique characteristics and potential health implications of fraternal twins who share one placenta"?

Fraternal twins who share one placenta are known as monochorionic twins. This means they have a higher risk of developing complications such as twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome, where one twin receives more blood flow than the other. This can lead to growth discrepancies and other health issues. Monitoring and early intervention are crucial for the health of these twins.

What is the difference between dizygotic twins and monozygotic twins?

Dizygotic twins develop from two separate ova fertilized by different sperm at roughly the same time, they are also called fraternal twins. Monozygotic twins develop from one zygote that splits apart producing genetically identical zygotes; also called identical twins.


What are MZ and DZ Twin Pairs?

MZ twins are identical twins that share 100% of the same DNA. DZ twins share only 50% of their DNA (fraternal twins). MZ twins are always the same gender, whereas DZ twins can be the same gender or one male and one female. DZM would be the male pairing of DZ twins, DZF is the female pairing, and DZO is when there is a male and a female.

What is the probability of having twins if your dad is a fraternal twin and you are a identical twin and your moms dad is a fraternal twin?

The probability is the same as if you had no history of twins in your family. There is no genetic component with identical twins, it is just something that happens. Fraternal twins occur if a mother "drops" two eggs in one month. Your father being a fraternal twin does not make you "drop" more than one egg in a month and so does not increase your chances of having twins. Your maternal grandfather being a fraternal twin did not effect your mother's ability to drop more than one egg and so did not effect your ability to "drop" more than one egg and so does not increase your ability to have twins.

What are my chances of having twins if my husband is a twin and I have younger twin sisters?

Having a husband who is a twin and having twin sisters may increase your chances of having twins, but it depends on various factors. The likelihood of fraternal twins can be influenced by genetics, particularly on the mother's side. Since you have twin sisters, you might have a higher chance of releasing multiple eggs during ovulation, which can lead to fraternal twins. However, identical twins are not influenced by genetics and occur randomly. Overall, while your family history suggests a higher likelihood, it doesn't guarantee that you will have twins.


What is the chance of having twins if your grandmother and grandfather were both fraternal twins and your half sister had twins AND you have a half sis and half bro that are fraternal twins?

The chances of having twins can be influenced by genetics, but it's not guaranteed. In this scenario, with multiple twins in the family, there may be a slightly higher likelihood of having twins due to a genetic predisposition, but it's not definite. Other factors like age, ethnicity, and lifestyle also play a role in the likelihood of having twins.

What is the probability of having twins if your husband is a twin?

Identical twins happen by chance only; 4 per 1000 births or 0.004 probability. Fraternal twin probability is increased only if it is on the mother's side; so this does you affect your circumstance (from what you have stated). The chance of fraternal twins is 1 in 60 or 0.017. So, your probability of identical twins is 0.004 and fraternal twins is 0.017 (BTW, I have triplets).

My Paternal grandfather and his sister were twins. I myself have fraternal twin boys. But none of my 1st cousins, or my sister have twins. I have two cousins who have had 3 single births so far, and my sister has had 2 single births as well. I dont know the chances of them giving birth to twins, but it does seem relatively low.
