In a remarkable medical event, a woman surnamed Li from Shaanxi province, China, has given birth to twins from both of her uteruses, a condition that affects only 0.3% of women worldwide. The births occurred on September 24, 2024, at Xi’an No 4 Hospital, where she delivered a boy weighing 3.3 kg and a girl weighing 2.4 kg after an eight-and-a-half-month pregnancy. [cf69d8d4]
Li's pregnancy was closely monitored due to her previous experience of miscarriage at 27 weeks. Doctors at the hospital devised a meticulous plan to ensure her safety throughout the pregnancy, which began in January 2024. Senior obstetrician Cai Ying emphasized the rarity of successful pregnancies in both uteruses, describing Li's case as a 'one in a million' phenomenon. [cf69d8d4]
