Statistic of multiples post op?

[hermione394 5]

Just to say upfront: We DO NOT have any intention on trying until I am at least 1 year post op...

I've read that the chances of multiples go up post op...how long is this the case, and how frequently? I've struggled with PCOS ever since I was 12, so I worry that I'll be the ONE woman who will still be infertile post op...

I'm just waiting for my doctor to release me to TTC--He said he will probably release me in January (right after hitting the 18 month mark).

I'm still curious about the statistics behind having multiples post-op...does anyone have any info for me? I don't really mind either way, I just need to know if I should mentally prepare my husband for the possibility, and I am wondering if the statistics are about the same for people without the surgery and ourselves, or do we have a higher chance of a multiples pregnancy.

I would suspect that it's just like in any other pregnancy - genetics or fertility treatments increase your odds of multiples. After that, it just a matter of fate! I told my husband when we do start trying, I hope it's twins, because at my age I feel like we have one shot. And his mom is a twin.

I had surgery in 2012

Single Birth (baby #5) 2013

Single Birth (baby #6) 2015

I am 37 (increased chance of multiples)

I have had multiple pregnancies (increased chance of multiples)

I do not think there is a correlation. I think it is more genetic and or drug induced.
