Identical twins are not hereditary so you have no more chance of conceiving twins than anyone else.
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.
I'm not sure on the actual percentages. It firstly depends on if your father is an identical or non-identical twin. (Maternal or fraternal) Non-identical (fraternal) twins are the hereditary type, not the identical ones. Identical twins are simply a hiccup with the cell division during fetal growth, whereas non-identical twins are due to the hereditary tendency of the woman releasing more than one egg at a time. The gene for non-identical twins is directly passed from fathers to daughters, and the chance of having twins usually skips a generation too (like baldness in men!). So, if your father is a twin (a non-identical twin) and you are his daughter, it's possible that you may also have twins, but it's far more likely that your daughter will. My father is a twin (his brother died at birth and it's not known if he was maternal or fraternal unfortunately) and I only have 1 child (a daughter). She has a very high chance of having twins if dad was fraternal.
P(twin)=P(identical)+P(fraternal) P(twin)=0.004 +0.023 P(twin)=0.027 [That's 27 out of 1,000 cases, or 54 persons out of 1027.]
1- P(identical) - P(fraternal) =1-0.004-0.023 =0.973 The probability of being a identical or fraternal twin plus the probability of not being a twin has to add to 1. so 1- probability of being twins=probability of not being a twin ;-)
a hard stomach and twin periods in one month mean you have twins on board.
Women who are themselves fraternal twins have a 10% chance of producing twins, identical twin women have only a 0.6% probability of having a twin birth.
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..
I am an identical twin myself, and my wife just had identical triplets. So probably we would not've had twins if I was a singleton. So the chances of us multiples having them is around 1 in 20.....
You have the same chance as the general population. Identical twins are a genetic accident, researchers still don't know what triggers an egg to split making two embryos from one fertilized egg.
conceiving twins has nothing to do with the males side of the family. It all depends on the female and if she hyper ovulates or not.
monozygotic or maternal twins

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.
I have an identical twin. For me it is no more likely that I will have twins than anyone else because identical twins are just flukes. If you are a non- identical twin and that is because your mother had two eggs, then you may have this too, and it is more likely you will have twins.
it depends on you and your bf or husband but it is likely u will have twins
i say that identical twins are the least rare because like me a fraternal twin i only know 1 pair of fraternal twin.
Fingerprints are different in identical twins.
