Determine the Gender

With the medical progress that we are witnessing today, it has become possible to determine the sex of the fetus in different ways, such as: IVF or ICSI, which is one of the techniques that allows the doctor to carry out genetic diagnosis before implantation to examine the fetus, and thus a preimplantation genetic diagnosis test or what is known as preimplantation genetic examination is performed. transplant.

Many couples resort to this technique in order to balance the number of males and females in their families.

What is The Method of Determining The Sex of The Fetus in The Process of ICSI?

This technology is used for specific medical reasons, such as: avoiding transmission of sex-related diseases, or determining the sex of the fetus in the event of known genetic disorders in the family.

When going to the process of determining the gender of the fetus, customers ask how to determine the gender of the fetus in order to be reassured and to know the stages that they will go through. 

We are on the site of A.D. Mahmoud Jihad We always strive to educate clients about the medical procedures they go through and tell them about the methods and methods used in treatment, so that they are fully aware of the steps:

1. In this process, ovulation is activated and stimulated in the woman, and after this stage is successfully completed, we inject the woman with a needle called ovulation detonation, so that we can retrieve the eggs. It is worth noting that these stages take place in sterile places specially equipped for that, and they take place under the influence of medical anesthesia.
2. We come to the stage of withdrawing a semen sample from the husband, to clean and prepare it, and to select the finest and best sperm, which are characterized by: proper shape and healthy movement, then fertilize one sperm into the cytoplasm of one egg.
3. These fertilized eggs are placed in the laboratory for several days until they are divided into several cells, and when they reach the stage of the fetus, we withdraw one cell to examine the chromosomes in the genetics laboratories and find out the gender of the fetus. Then the sex of the desired fetus is implanted in the mother’s womb, so that the pregnancy can begin safely.

Does The Process of Determining The Gender of The Fetus Using ICSI Require Special Procedures Before Starting It?

  Yes, the process of determining the gender of the fetus before pregnancy using ICSI requires special procedures. These procedures differ from one case to another, but I will mention to you the agreed upon procedures, without which the process is not completed, and they include:

1. Genetic examination of the parents: In this examination, we analyze the genetic samples of the parents to identify possible genetic diseases and evaluate the options for determining the sex of the fetus.
2. Preparation of eggs and sperm: At this stage, eggs and sperm are prepared in preparation for ICSI.
3. ICSI: At this stage, we inject the sperm into the eggs and implant the embryos in the mother’s womb.
4. Fetal sample analysis: Fetal sample analysis is used to determine the sex of the fetus.

What is The Success Rate of Determining The Gender of The Fetus?

Here, a distinction must be made between the process of determining the type of fetus and the process of a woman carrying this fetus, whose type we have determined. The success rate of determining the gender of the fetus through ICSI = 99% or more, as it is done in a very accurate way. As for the percentage of women’s pregnancy through the ICSI process, after determining the gender of the fetus, it reaches 60%.

The success rates of these operations depend on several factors, including:

• woman’s age
• What kind of infertility does she have, and is it from her only or from the husband as well
• The sick and reproductive history of the wife

The Cost of ICSI and Determining The Gender of The Fetus

The price of the gender determination process depends on many factors related to diagnosing the condition, and knowing the exact procedures required, so that we can know the cost. However, Prof. Dr. Mahmoud Jihad is seriously keen to provide a unique cost to his clients that does not accept competition.
