    Dr. Tala - another awesome video and great bottom line explanation. Quick 2 questions that come to mind - i have always had trouble distinguishing btwn why LMP is used as a way for us to estimate gestational age. Can you provide an explanation that is simple about why LMP is a good surrogate for eGA? In addition, for TTTS (Twin-twin transfusion), is that really only an issue if pts are mono-mono? What other potential complications aside from TTTS can arise for pts mono-mono?

    Thank you fo this video. I had bloodwork done and was told my twin boys are monozygotic. But I was told due to them having there own placenta and sacks they are not identical. Would you say identical if thats what the nipt test showed? Thank you.
