Hello, your post just caught my attention.Clomiphene citrate (Clomid, Serophene) is an oral medication that has been used for induction of ovulation for almost 40 years. Over the last 20 – 25 years it also has been used for superovulation to increase the chance of conceiving in women who are ovulatory. Commonly, intrauterine insemination (IUI) is combined with this medication.
Clomiphene is a very weak estrogen that attaches to the estrogen receptor in the hypothalamic-pituitary area. The medication acts like an “anti-estrogen”. For most women who do not ovulate, this medication commonly will make them ovulate. For women who are already ovulating, the medication will stimulate the ovary to increase the production of the female hormones and stimulate ovulation. Occasionally, a woman will become pregnant with twins. If you want to stops this please consult a gynecologist first.

ditto last answer.
No one knows what causes identical (monozygotic) twins. It appears that all women, irrespective of ethnicity, have an equal chance of having identical twins and that the chance is approximately 1 in 350-400. Identical twins do not run in families. A chance of having non identical twins is slightly higher. About 1 in every 65 pregnancies today (in western world including fertility treatments) is a twin pregnancy, which means that about 1 in 32 babies born is a twin.
