Quads Born After Hormone Therapy For Woman
LOS ANGELES AP Ten months ago Alice Pigge took a fertility drug to cure a disorder not to conceive. Now she has quadruplets two boys and two girls born a month early at Los Angeles County General Hospital. The four babies weigh nine pounds total and are in incubators in critical condition. Mrs Pigge, 5 feet 2 inches with an average build, is in fair condition and cheerful. The drug clomiphene citrate was taken on a physician's advice to correct irregularity and then pregnancy occurred in January. Doctors say the drug may have caused multiple births, though timing complicates certainty. The Pigges are separated, listed as James Pigge in hospital records.
