How to give birth to boys and girls in vitro in the United States

What determines having boys and girls?

As is well known, the chromosomes in the human body are composed of 23 pairs of autosomes and 1 pair of sex chromosomes, and the type of sex chromosome determines a person's gender. The male sex chromosome is XY, while the female sex chromosome is XX. The eggs produced by women contain an X chromosome, but there are two types of sperm produced by men, one with the X chromosome and the other with the Y chromosome.

If sperm with the X chromosome combine with an egg, the developed baby is a girl; If sperm with the Y chromosome combine with an egg, the developed baby is a boy.

So, whether sperm containing X or Y male sex chromosomes combine with the egg is a matter of opportunity, not a decision made by the wife or husband. The number of sperm in x and Y is the same, so the probability of giving birth to a boy and a girl is theoretically the same.

How does the American IVF achieve the goal of giving birth to boys and girls?

There is currently no technology to change the gender of embryos. We can only screen for male embryos before they are implanted into the mother's uterus to ensure the birth of a boy.

The third-generation in vitro technology in the United States can perform full gene screening on blastocysts, not only screening for blastocysts with genetic mutations and defects, effectively blocking the downward trend of diseases, ensuring the health of infants, but also detecting the gender of infants with an accuracy rate of up to 99.9%.

Is it reliable to give birth to boys through in vitro fertilization in the United States? How should it be implemented? Choosing a baby's gender is not allowed in China unless there is a sexually linked genetic disease. In the United States, as long as assisted pregnancy is achieved through in vitro technology, the gender of the baby can be freely chosen, provided that there are specific sex specific blastocysts that the customer wants.

If the principal wants to have a boy, but only female embryos are selected from the healthy blastocysts, the principal can only transfer female embryos or choose to start a new cycle and retrieve the eggs again. However, we cannot guarantee that there will be screened healthy male embryos after another ovulation induction.

After understanding the principle of giving birth to boys and girls, everyone should know that the gender of a baby cannot be changed due to medication, so folk remedies must not be trusted to avoid causing harm to the body, and the gains outweigh the losses.
