Hi, I have gone through your question. Early delivery at 34 weeks is recommended in monochorionic monoamniotic twins. In the rest type of twins, the delivery should occur by 37-38 weeks of gestation. Betnesol injection is given to accelerate the lung maturity in fetus. It has no harmful effect on the mother or fetus.
The type of the twins is assessed by the ultrasound.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
