You mentioned that you're on a couple of different medications to help increase your chances of conceiving and you have some good questions. Are those really going to increase your chances of having a baby and are you more likely to have twins? Those are questions that a lot of women have. As for it increasing the chances of you having a baby, this is a great question for your doctor. They can tell you the specifics of their intentions and why they feel that those medications will help you conceive. But I'm guessing that if they put you on them, that they're planning on it helping your chances. I do hope that it does and that you're asking me pregnancy questions in the future. As for it increasing your chances of having twins, again, there's a lot of different factors that go into this. Chances for twins are much higher when using medications that are stimulating ovulation or stimulating your body to release eggs. Sometimes it can release multiple eggs and that's how you get multiple babies. So if you're not taking those types of medications, then your chances of having twins aren't necessarily higher. You mentioned that it runs in your family. If the women in your family have a history of releasing multiple eggs at once and having twins spontaneously, then your chances are higher just because of that whether or not you're taking fertility medication. But again, I think it would be best for you to counsel with your doctor and they can give you the best information based on the knowledge that they have of your individual situation. Good luck with everything again and if you have more questions for me in the future, feel free to ask them on our Facebook page at facebook.com/intermountainmoms and recommend us to your friends and family, too.
