Dr. Gerard Honore answered

Specializes in Fertility Medicine

Cross your fingers: The frequency of natural twinning is between 1-2%. Use of fertility medications can increase that chance up to 25%, but its considered medically inappropriate to administer fertility medicines purely for conceiving multiples.
