Gender selection: Cheap alternative to expensive genetic procedures
I have talked to many parents-to-be who wished there were alternative gender selection methods available to them. For decades gender selection was not even possible. Around the 1970s, the first technologies were pioneered, but they were not very effective. Many parents ended up disappointed and out thousands of dollars. Fast forward to today, and parents are a little bit less disapointed, but they are left with a feeling of guilt and worry, and even more money out of their bank account. Modern gender selection procedures have depended on the mother wanting to go through with in-vitro fertilization, which is when the fathers sperm is used to fertilize the mothers egg in a lab, which is then incubated and implanted into the mother. The problem with these methods is they are in the same categories as abortions to ethicists. Many people would jump at the opportunity of choosing the gender of their baby if there weren’t such harsh ethical implications and if it was affordable to the average person. For the longest time there was no alternative to these procedures, until now. Middle and low income parents to be all over the world are now excited as ever because gender selection is now available to them. Thanks to Dr. Ashley Spencer, there is now a 100% natural alternative to these methods. It’s the real deal: research has shown that her method has a 95% accuracy rate! Even genetic/IVF methods like MicroSort and the Ericcson method top out at only 90%. Her method is also only $47. Originally her method was only going to be distributed throughout the medical community and other people in the industry, but she decided to help out the common person and offer the whole system as step by step instructions available for download online. You have nothing to lose as she offers a 100% money back guarantee if you are not satisfied!

Gender Selection – Frogs & Snails or Sugar & Spice?
Will gender selection be the new isle in the supermarket, geared towards people who need to have a baby of certain sex?
In today’s society, where we have a choice in everything major in our lives, from where we are going to give birth to our babies, to pre planning our own funeral. Is it right that we can determine the sex of a baby before it’s even conceived?
Apparently so… Gone are the days when a fourth little girl would cause disappointment to the father. Gone are the days of fingers crossed and hope for a boy.
It’s all out there for us if we care to look. Gender selection products and methods are easily available, so we can have a baby to fit into our preplanned lifestyles.
Baby sex selection methods can range from the ‘very expensive’ to ‘the very cheap’. Microsort & PGD weigh in at the top end of the scale, and have approximately 80% chance of giving you what you want. But could you imagine paying thousands of pounds for a bouncing baby boy, and being in the 20% that end up with a little girl.
That’s right, around twenty percent of people will spend lots of their hard earned money, and still not get what they wanted!
So onto those cheaper gender selection methods, and even a couple of free tips!
Whether you are purely desperate enough to try anything, or just trying it for the fun of the whole experience – with a little bit of “how great would it be if it really worked!” Here a few theories (based on the Shettles method) to think about.
Baby Gender Selection – When the ‘percentage’ Really Counts!
Although certain society’s look down at picking the gender of your baby. For some people it’s a dream come true. There can be many reasons why obtaining a baby of a certain sex is desired by some couples or individuals. From genetic illness and disease to just a simple case of wanting to raise a baby of a particular gender.
When researching baby sex selection, you will learn that very little is guaranteed 100%. Which can leave you in a difficult situation. Should you risk thousands of pounds (or dollars) to conceive a little boy that you really want and have an approximately 25% error margin! Or perhaps a little girl, with a 10% error margin.
Most medical gender selection processes aren’t exactly cheap. So when charging this much money, you would think they could get this process right!
Microsort is an extension to IVF, but instead of just implanting any embryo back into your uterus, it is hopefully (fingers crossed) an embryo which is the gender of your choice. The x and the y bearing sperm are sorted before being mixed with the egg in IVF, ICSI or before being used in artificial insemination.
So let’s look at some figures, Microsort technology gives you an approximate (this may be slightly different either way) 90% chance of selecting a girl, or a lower approximate rate of 75% for a boy. In other words, if you want a girl, there is still a 1 in 10 chance of having a boy. IF you want a boy, then there is a 1 in 4 chance of you having a girl!
The chances of the IVF procedure itself working is only around 35%, IUI (artificial insemination pregnancy rate is only around 15%
Let’s look at another method, PGD (Pre-implantation Genetic Diagnosis) This is the by far the most expensive method of gender selection. Costing more than IVF and ICSI It very nearly hits the 100% guarantee for giving you the baby of your preferred gender. The expense alone leaves many people out in the cold light of day.
The Ericsson method is more affordable, and the process only takes around 4 hours. The father would provide a sperm sample at an Ericsson clinic, after the sperm sample has been sorted, the mother would be inseminated. The whole process is carried out on the day that the mother is believed to be ovulating on. So onto success rates – Around 78%-85% for boys, and 73%-75% for girls. Rather a large error margin for both sexes.
With any of the above methods, wouldn’t you be just totally devastated, if after paying that sort of money you were left with a baby of the wrong gender, or even worse, no baby at all!
There is another way to conceive a baby of your preferred gender. After all if you would be willing to try these above methods, but just haven’t budgeted to that amount. Then I know of a way that has an approximate 94% success rate… and to top it all off, it’s hundreds of dollars cheaper than those above!

If somebody told you that the process of gender selection was easy, what would you say?

OK enough questions! If you are reading this article then it’s more than likely because the topic of gender selection has cropped up in your day to day life. I know plenty of people with all boys, or all girls. And I also know a good half of them would have more children if only they be guaranteed the sex of their choice.
There is of course medical ways of baby sex selection. Microsort is the most common method, similar to IVF only the sperm gets sorted first. Now wouldn’t you think that with all of the technical equipment that our consultants and medical staff have now days, that if you paid your money – You would get what you paid for?… Not necessarily!
It can’t be guaranteed, and that’s if you get pregnant at all. Everyone thinks of IVF and assumes that there will be a baby at the end. Not always true, The pregnancy rate for IVF is only around 35%! Now if you are one of those lucky 35 out of 100 women, the chances of you having the gender of your choice are along these lines – To conceive a girl, 90%. To conceive a boy, 80%.
So on the whole process we’re not really talking good odds.
To be fair there is a process out there, that still uses IVF, but very nearly 100% guarantees you the child of your choice. You will pay through your high teeth for this method. PGD (Pre implantation Genetic Diagnosis) determines the gender of the embryo before it is placed into your uterus. Onto The Easy Bit
One more question – What if you were to find out, that there is a way to get pregnant with a child of the gender of your choice. Not only does this method give you a child of your dreams, it will prepare your body for pregnancy. How?…
