Read More »The prostate is a small, muscular gland that is part of the male reproductive system. It slowly swells as a man gets older, squeezing the urethra and limiting the flow of urine. An enlarged prostate is known as Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia or BPH. Accompanying symptoms can be mild to severe and usually get worse over time. The diagnosis helps to rule out other more serious conditions and can help to manage the symptoms and treat the condition.

It was once believed that identical (monozygotic or MZ) twins occured at random. There is now some evidence to suggest that MZ twins may run in families, but this is very rare. In general, it is fraternal (dizygotic or DZ) twins that run in families. It is believed that there are genetic factors that can cause hyperovulation, which is the release of multiple eggs during ovulation. DZ twins occur when two eggs are released during the same menstrual cycle, and are fertilized by two different sperm cells. The genetic factors that may cause hyperovulation have not been identified. There is no genetic testing available for them. It looks like twins “skip a generation” in some families. This is because genetic factors that may cause hyperovulation resulting in DZ twins can only be observed in women. But these genetic factors may be inherited by men and passed on to their daughters. Their daughters would then have an increased chance of having DZ twins. So if you are a female DZ twin and there are other DZ twins in your family, you may have an increased chance of having DZ twins. If you are a male DZ twin and there are other DZ twins in your family, you do not have an increased chance of having DZ twin children. But if you have daughters, you may have an increased chance of having DZ twin grandchildren! The above discussion does not apply to DZ twins who were conceived by the use of fertility treatments.
