Gender Selection FAQs
Posted by Dr. John Jain |
Gender selection is a fairly new option in the field of fertility treatment. Patients undergoing IVF can now choose whether to use a male or female embryo. Here are some frequently asked questions about this process.
MicroSort Gender Selection
Posted by Dr. John Jain |
The purpose of sperm sorting is to help couples conceive a child that is the gender of their choice. If the sperm that fertilizes the egg carries an X chromosome, the conception will result in a female embryo. Y-carrying sperm will result in a male embryo. There is typically a very small difference in the weight of sperm based on which sex chromosome it carries. Gender selection sperm sorting technology relies on this difference to separate sperm using a centrifuge.
