Sex Selection Techniques for Pregnancy - Girl or boy?

Wednesday March 12, 2008
Looking at a family where the girls or boys rule, you might wonder about sex selection techniques. This is how some families go about family balancing - having at least one child of each sex before finalizing their families. From timing methods like Shettles Method to sperm spinning and other high tech reproductive techniques like MicroSort®, there is help for families who are interested.

This newest form of sex selection also screens for over 600 genetic diseases.
