Studies say that one out of five pregnancies due to IVF may result in multiple births. Usually, it is seen because during IVF, sometimes multiple embryos might be inserted into the uterus in order to increase the chances of giving birth to twins. Because of this, sometimes more than one embryo gets implanted in the uterine lining and result in twin pregnancy.
Although, even a single embryo can lead to a twin pregnancy in case of IVF when one egg may split and lead to the formation of two zygotes. These are termed as monozygotic twins. While in the case of twins as a result of two separate eggs are called Dizygotic twins. This is a result of transferring two or more embryos in the uterus.
IVF treatment proved to be a blessing for the women who are unable to conceive normally or in other words, are infertile. This medical procedure increases the chances of a woman to get pregnant after trying naturally for long.
Why sometimes IVF results in multiple births?
The prime reason for multiple pregnancies as a result of IVF is because of transferring many embryos at the same time. In the hope of achieving a better possibility of success, doctors sometimes routinely transferred multiple embryos. The main reason behind this is that most of the embryos can have chromosomal abnormalities, i.e., they are not actually viable. This is applicable in both the cases whether the embryo is conceived naturally or through the assistance process, IVF. With the increase in women’s age, the proportion of abnormal eggs increases as well. The reason behind this is that the quality of eggs tends to decline over the years. With the hope that at least one of the embryos would survive, doctors place two or more embryos inside the uterus simultaneously thinking that it would increase the rate of pregnancy. This lead to cases of multiple pregnancies as most of the times, more than one embryo get successfully implanted.
How can we avoid the chances of twins because of IVF?
Most of the leading experts in the field of fertility now go for eSET (elective single embryo transfer) and consider it to be the best practice for most of the IVF cycles. During the ovarian stimulation process, sometimes the woman may produce a large number of eggs and also can have a considerable number of viable embryos available. And the doctor still may suggest transferring only one embryo.
Every IVF cycle is one of a kind and never can we have a single answer that it is right for all. The women going through IVF cycle and her doctor can assess the risks and analyse the benefits of eSET in comparison to multiple transfers in her case. In some of the cases, fertility doctors can still go for transferring more than one embryo. This is mostly seen in the cases of older patients who already had multiple failed attempts.
