A chance of a woman having twins is increased after the age of 35. About 1 in 27 women will give birth to twins after this age. After 50 the chances of having twins is 1 in 9.

By Erin 386 Days AgoIm going to have to assume that this do to the increase in the amount of fertility drugs being taken. After age 35 a female's eggs are not as "healthy" as they once were. Women are born with their eggs unlike males who constantly make more sperm. Therefore, a woman's eggs are as old as she is. Because of this, as women age it becomes more difficult to get pregnant, and therefore a larger percentage of women in that age group are taking fertility drugs.
