We are going for IUI this cycle and someone in my family mentioned chances of twins are higher with these treatments. Now im both excited and a little nervous about it. Is it actually common?
Haan twin chances do go up a bit with IUI because of the hormone injections. My friend had IUI twins. But its not guaranteed at all. Ur doctor will tell u the realistic odds for ur case.
We are thinking about IUI too so this is helpful. So the medicines are what raise the twin chance, not the procedure itself? Good to know, will ask our doctor about it.
My doctor explained that IUI itself doesnt cause twins, but the ovulation stimulation drugs used with it can sometimes lead to twins. The chance is higher than natural but still not very common. They watch ur follicles to manage the risk.
Yes it can, especially if u r given fertility medicines along with IUI that make u release more than one egg. That slightly raises the chance of twins. Ur fertility doctor monitors this carefully, so trust their guidance.
