What Is Gender Selection?
Gender selection — also called family balancing — lets you choose whether your next child is a boy or a girl. During IVF, your embryos are tested with Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT) before transfer, and only an embryo of your chosen sex is placed in the womb. The selection itself is 100% accurate: the embryo transferred is the sex you chose.
Why Couples Choose It?
- Balance your family — add a son or a daughter with certainty, not chance.
- Avoid sex-linked genetic disease — prevent passing on conditions tied to one sex.
- Plan with confidence — and freeze healthy remaining embryos for the future.
- Done ethically and legally — family balancing through IVF-PGT is a regulated, legal medical procedure in Egypt.
How is Gender Selection done?
- The woman is thoroughly investigated for reasons that decrease success rate or stop us from doing the operation and treated if any is found.
- An ovarian stimulation protocol is custom tailored and explained to you and started in the appropriate timing.
- Your follicle number and size and uterine lining is monitored by ultrasound and hormone testing on certain days.
- When follicles and uterine lining reach adequate size another medicine is added to induce ovulation.
- You will be told to come to the hospital for egg pick up fasting from 6-9 hours and will be asked to bring an ID with you.
- Your eggs will be aspirated using a special needle installed on the vaginal ultrasound under sedation.
- The man’s sperm will be collected at the same time.
- The eggs are then fertilized with the male sperm and left in a special incubator which has the same atmosphere as the inside of a uterus and they are checked at a specific timetable to monitor the division of the cells.
- At a specific time the shell around the developing embryo is opened by laser machines and a professional specialist takes out a cell without harming the rest of the embryo.
- This cell is then studied for its genetic characteristics which involves knowing the sex of the embryo.
- At a specific time chosen embryos are replaced inside the uterus using special catheters and under supervision of ultrasound while remaining embryos are cryopreserved or disregarded.
