Rare/ 19-year-old gives birth to twins with different fathers

2022-09-08 10:55:00, Lifestyle CNA

A 19-year-old woman gave birth to two twins with different fathers, after having sex with two people. The 19-year-old from Minerios in Goias, Brazil, said she took a paternity test because she wanted to confirm who the children's father was.

She took DNA from the person she thought was the children's father, but after two tests, the results came back positive for only one of the twins. Meanwhile, he remembered having sex with another man on the same day, and when the second man took a test, he revealed that he was the father of the second twin.

The phenomenon is scientifically named heteroparental superfecundation. Speaking to "Globo", her doctor Tulio Jorge Franco explained: "It is possible to happen when two eggs from the same mother are fertilized by different men. The babies share the mother's genetic material, but they grow in different placentas".

He emphasized that the case is extremely rare, 'one in a million' and he did not think he would see one in his life. It is claimed that there are only about 20 such cases in the world. /CNA.al
