One of the most common things couples visit gynecologists for is to help them have a baby of a particular gender. While most of the people reading this will wonder if that is possible, research shows that an overwhelming percentage of people who’ve tried out various alternate methods for conceiving a boy or a girl claim that the methods have worked for them!

Gender selection in pregnancy is not something your doctor can help you with. But that does not mean there is no way in which you can increase the chances of conceiving a boy or a girl. There are some time tested things which have been proven to increase the chances manifold and you can find them online quite easily. However, the problem (like with most things online) is that there is no assurance whether it’ll work or not. So it makes sense to use a process which has a good set of testimonials attached to it.

Gender selection in pregnancy is usually determined by the number (and quality) of the X and Y chromosomes, and the time at which the actual conception happens. It is said that the sperm cells which help make a boy have a very short life span and it would make sense to plan the conception on the day of the actual ovulation so that the sperm cells don’t get wasted. Then there is the diet factor. It has been proven time and again that pH value plays one of the most important roles in the gender selection process and that is dependant on the diet taken.

So it is a ‘process’ and not something that can be achieved overnight – but yes; it is quite possible to increase the chances of conceiving a baby of a particular gender.
