Hi ,
As you have strong family history of twins , you have a high possibility of having twins , even without any treatment. Chances are high but not 100 % .
Even if you have 1 ovary you pregnancy chances are the same. Your husband needs treatment & once corrected you stand a good chance of pregnancy.
All the best
