Globally, the birth rate of children has decreased or it has become a serious problem in different countries. But surprisingly, in the present era, the rate of birth of twins has increased 3 times as compared to any previous period.

This is the first time in history and research reports continue to predict that the rate of twin births will continue to rise.

According to experts, there are several reasons for this, such as social factors such as older women becoming pregnant and increasing rates of infertility treatments.

Although the birth of twins is not very common in humans, it occurs in one out of every 60 pregnancies.

Experts said that as women get older, chances of conceiving twins increases as hormones change over time. According to 2023 data from England and Wales, it is becoming more common among younger women, where one in every 2,000 women under 20 gave birth to twins, but among women aged 35 to 39. The rate was one in 51.
