OVERVIEW ON GENDER SELECTION METHODS
Many couples are interested in the sex selection of their
baby and why not when it is technically possible due to
advances in fertility treatment that assist experts to
create and identify certain sex embryos.
But as many countries won’t allow gender selection
practice, the options are not equally effective, available
or affordable. However the most accurate gender
selection methods are usually the most expensive. Today
internet is full with the information about gender
selection, be precise as much of this information is filled
with scams and unproven techniques.
Read on- if you want to know about the experts proven
gender selection techniques.
HIGH TECH GENDER SELECTION METHODS
The high tech sex selection methods are draw from two existing and
popular infertility treatments such as IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) & AI
(Artificial Insemination).
IVF is a well known fertility treatment usually suggested when all
other artificial methods have failed. Starts with prescription of fertility
drugs to stimulate the female’s ovaries in order to produce more
eggs, instead of single egg you usually produce in your each
menstrual cycle, the process is completely carried out outside the
body. Once eggs mature enough for removal, your doctor removes
number of eggs from your ovaries under general anesthesia and then
fertilize the retrieved eggs with sperm in a cultural dish in laboratory
under certain conditions.
After three or five days, doctor selects healthy embryos and places
them in your uterus with the help of a thin catheter. Your age, health
history and quality of eggs usually decides the number of eggs
inserted to achieve pregnancy.
PRE- IMPLANTATION GENETIC DIAGNOSIS
(PGD)
PGD was first introduced back in 1989 to initially help couples who
have high risk of genetic disorder and have chances to have children
with the same condition. As high techniques are used in this
procedure to make its result accurate, today it is one of the most
effective gender selection procedures available. Also it is suggested
for women who have a history of recurrent miscarriage.
The procedure is followed by IVF. The embryologist in IVF, try to
determine which embryo has the best chance to implant by
microscope, however in PGD, the embryos are tested thoroughly for
sex and genetic abnormalities. Unlike IVF where more than one
embryo is transferred, in PGD fewer embryos are transferred
because they have already tested the best ones that are likely to
achieve healthy pregnancy.
PGD adds additional cost to IVF cycle around $3000 to $5000 to the
tab.
MICROSORT
Introduced in late 1995, MicroSort is 88% successful in choosing baby
girls and about 74% successful in choosing baby boys.
The technique is basically separates the girl producing sperm from the
boy producing sperm variety. And then the desired gender is placed into
the female’s uterus via Artificial Insemination (AI). MicroSort based on
the premise that girl- producing sperm carry X- chromosomes is quite
bigger than boy- producing sperm carry Y- chromosomes.
In this procedure, doctor color a sperm sample with fluorescent dye and
use a laser to illuminate the dye. Bigger X- chromosome absorbs the dye
and shine brighter than Y- chromosome.
The procedure was first available for clinical trial and cost around
$3,000 per AI cycle, however fertility drugs if used, the additional cost
would be around $2,000 and cost an average of $12,000 with an IVF
cycle. The procedure is no longer available.
