IVF with Gender Selection Package in the United States

IVF with Gender Selection Package in the United States

IVF with gender selection (IVF with PGD) is a medical procedure through which families can choose the future baby’s sex so as to balance a family sex-wise or to avoid several sex-linked diseases. In order to do so, there are some factors that must be taken into account, such as age and woman's hormone levels, sperm analysis, overall health of both parents, chronic disease history etc. 

The process of gender selection increases the chances of having a male of female child, by separating sperm that bear the x chromosome (female), and those that have the y chromosome (male), and inseminating with whichever sample is required.

Success rate

The chances of success with a single embryo transfer are 65% and with a transfer of two embryos are 83% (and a 30% chance of twins).
