How does it work with NOW-fertility?
A dedicated clinical team responsible for sex selection cycles at NOW-fertility is available 24/7 to support you every step of the way. Your consultations are carried out virtually at times to suit you.
Your medications are delivered to you at home and monitoring during your IVF cycle arranged near to where you live or work.
Travel to your chosen clinic is only necessary for a short period of time once you are ready for egg collection:
- Fertilisation: The eggs that are collected are fertilised in the laboratory, typically using intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), to produce embryos.
- Embryo biopsy: After 2-5 days, the embryos are biopsied, with a few cells removed from each embryo for genetic testing.
- Genetic testing: The biopsy cells are analysed to determine the sex of the embryos, as well as to screen for any genetic abnormalities that you may have agreed with your consultant.
- Embryo transfer: Based on the results of the genetic testing, sex-selected embryos are then chosen for transfer and freezing.
It’s important to note that while IVF with sex selection is possible, it does not always guarantee to have embryos of the desired sex.
Is sex selection right for me?
Sex selection for medical reasons is used to avoid the birth of a child with a severe genetic disorder. Medical indications include:
- To prevent the transmission of sex-linked genetic disorders.
- To reduce the chances of having a child affected by a disorder with an unequal sex-incidence.
- To decrease transmission of disease to a third generation.
Sex selection for non-medical reasons is used to purposely select embryos of a specific sex for personal or social reasons. Reasons include:
- Family balancing when one sex is already represented in the family unit and the other sex is desired.
- Families where there are already more than one child of one sex.
- Familial or social reasons.
