Multiple Ovulation

Ovulation is the process in which a mature egg is released and is pushed down through the fallopian tube so that it becomes available for fertilization. In such a condition, the lining of the uterine wall thickens to hold the fertilized egg. In case, the conception does not takes place the uterine lining along with the blood sheds down as menstrual period.

Normally, one single egg is ovulated each month but in case more than one egg ovulates then the condition is termed as ‘Multiple Ovulation’. If both the eggs are released within a time period of 24 hrs. then there can be a possibility of fraternal twins. This condition arises only in 5- 10 % of the cycles and the chances of twins are also rare as most of the cases end in miscarriage which is referred as “Vanishing Twin Phenomenon”.

Multiple Embryonic Ovulation:

Although, multiple ovulation is not very common but it induced through medical treatment. These medications induced the probability of the ovaries to produce multiple eggs. This process is commonly followed in a process of ‘ Zygote Intrafallopian Transfer’ Where the fertilized eggs is transferred in the fallopian tubes.

In this process first the ovaries of the women are stimulated to produce multiple eggs through medication. Then, these eggs are collected through a procedure called ‘Aspiration Procedure’. Now the eggs are fertilized in the laboratory by artificial means.

Once the eggs are fertilized they are placed deep into the fallopian tube through ‘Laparascopic Procedure’. After few days the symptoms of pregnancy can be noticed.
