Determining Baby Gender Before Pregnancy: Methods, Pros, and Cons

Determining the gender of a baby is important for every family and socially significant, especially where customs require a specific gender. Thus, scientific and non-scientific attempts have emerged to determine the baby's gender before pregnancy, aiming to avoid problems that may even lead to divorce if the desired gender (after God's will) is not obtained. Here, we explain 4 methods to determine baby gender before pregnancy, their differences, advantages, and disadvantages.

Medical Intervention Methods for Gender Determination Before Pregnancy (Surgical):

Some methods exist with less than 40% success rates; we will describe them and then present the most reliable method.

1- Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD):

Also known as IVF microinjection, performed through several steps:

  • Eggs are retrieved from the mother and sperm from the father.
  • A single sperm is injected into each egg via IVF.
  • A small biopsy is taken from the developing embryos and sent for genetic evaluation to determine gender before embryo implantation in the mother's womb.

Advantages:

  • Based on trials; success rates may improve in the future.

Disadvantages:

  • Involves painful surgical procedures for the mother.
  • High financial cost.

2- Sperm Sorting:

A practical and accurate method but with very low success currently:

  • Sperm is sorted using flow cytometry.
  • Sperm cells are stained to react with DNA content for gender determination.
  • Concentrated sperm samples are transferred to the woman's uterus or used in IVF.

Advantages:

  • Based on trials; success rates may improve.

Disadvantages:

  • Involves painful surgeries.
  • Very low success rate currently.
  • Expensive.

3- Gender Determination Through Diet:

No scientific proof of accuracy, but some studies suggest:

  • Higher calorie intake before pregnancy is linked to higher chance of male offspring.
  • Elevated glucose levels in mother's blood promote male fetus growth.
  • Nutrient intake (potassium, calcium, vitamins C, E, B12) may correlate with male births.

Advantages:

  • Based on various studies; may improve in the future.

Disadvantages:

  • Not scientifically proven.
