Infertile Women are Twice as Likely to Desire Multiples as Fertile Controls

We previously published our finding that 20% of infertile women prefer a multiple gestation pregnancy to a singleton as the outcome of infertility treatment. The purpose of this follow-up study is to survey a comparable but fertile control population and compare the proportion of fertile controls that prefers a multiple birth outcome with this previously studied infertile population. We are also interested in determining the characteristics of our entire population that are associated with this desire for multiples.
