Twin Pregnancy Care in Bangalore
Twin pregnancy is the most common form of multiple gestation. Whether twins share a placenta significantly influences monitoring intensity and potential complications.

Understanding this area of care
A clear overview to help you know what to expect before your consultation.
Early ultrasound determines if twins are dichorionic diamniotic (separate placentas) or monochorionic — sharing one placenta. Monochorionic twins need more frequent surveillance for complications such as twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome. Antenatal care includes serial growth scans, discussion of preterm birth signs, iron and nutrition support, and delivery planning. Dr. Deepshika Jha provides twin pregnancy care at Grow and Glow Clinic, Kempapura, Hebbal, and Cloudnine Hospitals, Sahakar Nagar.

When should you seek care?
If any of the following apply, it is worth arranging a consultation.
- Early ultrasound confirms twin pregnancy
- You are pregnant after fertility treatment
- Contractions or leakage before term
- Concern about unequal growth between twins

What a consultation may involve
Every visit is tailored — this is a general guide to what may be discussed.

Individualised scan schedule based on twin type
Screening for twin-specific complications when applicable
Nutritional and anaemia guidance for twin pregnancy
Preterm labour education and hospital contact advice
Delivery mode and timing discussion
Treatment & management overview
Options depend on your history, examination findings, and preferences.
Dichorionic twin pregnancies without complications may continue closer to term with regular monitoring. Monochorionic twins often require earlier delivery planning. Vaginal birth may be possible for selected twin presentations; caesarean is more common for monochorionic twins with complications or unfavourable presentation of the first twin.
Frequently asked questions
Clear answers to common questions — for personal advice, please book a consultation.
Why does it matter if twins share a placenta?
Why does it matter if twins share a placenta?
Monochorionic twins share placental blood vessels, which creates risk of twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome and other complications not seen in dichorionic twins. Scan frequency and referral pathways differ accordingly.
Do twins always deliver early?
Do twins always deliver early?
Twins are more likely to deliver before 37 weeks than singletons, but not all twins are born preterm. Monitoring aims to reach as safe a gestational age as possible.
Can both twins be born vaginally?
Can both twins be born vaginally?
Vaginal delivery of twins is possible when the first twin is head-down, staff experienced in twin birth are available, and there are no other contraindications. Presentation and clinical circumstances guide the recommendation.
