Gender or sex selection is an attempt to control the sex of the offspring to achieve a desired gender as a result of pre-implantation genetic tests of an embryo, for the purpose of family balancing or controlling inherited genetics.
According to the United Nations Population Fund, the reasons behind gender selection are due to three factors and provide an understanding for sex ratio imbalances as well as to project future trends. The factors are:
(1) A preference for sons which stems from household structures “in which girls and women have a marginal social, economic and symbolic position, and consequently enjoy fewer rights.” These household structures also focus on security in which sons are expected to provide support to their parents throughout their life;
(2) Technological growth of prenatal diagnosis which allows parents to know the sex of their unborn child; and
(3) Low fertility which increases the need for sex selection by reducing the probability of having a daughter in smaller families.
The United Nations Population Fund states that “Local fertility restrictions and spontaneous rapid fertility decline below replacement levels tend to compel parents who want both a son and a small family size to resort to sex selection.”

Gender selection is available in the USA, North Cyprus, Ukraine, Georgia, Albania, Argentina.
Gender selection is made with the help of pre-implantation genetic tests, PGT-A, PGD, FISH, CGH Array, NGS, 5 or 24 chromosomes.
MAHRTA LLC contracts genetic labs and IVF clinics for conducting set of actions connected in one process for defining gender of your baby on the stage of IVF when embryo age is only 3-5 days!
Modern method for PGD NGS is done less invasively for embryos, but it takes 14 days. Embryos cannot wait that long before implantation. That’s why all embryos are frozen at day 5 or 6 age, each one in a separate numbered straw. After receiving PGD results, bad embryos are utilized, and patients can use good embryos for implantation to themselves or to a surrogate after quick thawing process.
It is recommended to avoid double freezing/thawing of embryos.
You can order your pre-implantation genetic tests with your in vitro fertilization and egg donation procedures.
