About Twins Testing

People request our Twins DNA Test for a number of reasons, including:

  • Medical necessity – In certain medical situations, where organ transplant or a blood transfusion is necessary, one twin may be able to save the life of the other twin. Knowing this information about your twins’ DNA beforehand will allow quick action if the occasion arises.
  • Curiosity – Parents may simply be curious as to whether their twins are identical or fraternal.

Identical (Monozygotic)

Develop from one egg and one sperm splitting and forming two embryos, and will have the same genetic information.

Fraternal (Heterozygotic)

Develop from separate eggs being fertilised by two different sperm, producing two children that are genetically unique.
