Explanation of each option: • (a) Abortion – True. Twin pregnancies carry a higher risk of miscarriage, especially in early gestation or vanishing twin syndrome. • (b) Post maturity – Incorrect (Correct Answer). Twins rarely go beyond 40 weeks. Most are delivered early to reduce complications. • (c) Low birth weight – True. Due to shared intrauterine space and resources, twins are commonly small for gestational age. • (d) Congenital malformations – True. Risk of structural anomalies and twin-related complications (like twin-twin transfusion syndrome) is higher.
