Conjoined Twins

Hi Everyone!

For my very first blog I have chosen to share some knowledge on conjoined twins. So here goes!

Conjoined twins is an extremely rare phenomenon and occurs in about one in 200,000 births. Around 40-60% are stillborn and only 35% survive longer than one day. It is not known why, but females tend to have higher chances of survivability than their male counterparts despite most conjoined twins in the womb being male.

Question.
How are conjoined twins formed?
