One of the most common activities for those,who soon plans to become a mom or dad is to determine the sex of the unborn child. It is rather difficult for the uninitiated to understand the meaning of these actions, it would seem - what difference does it make if a boy is born or a girl, but if one looks more closely, then everything is not so simple. First of all, determining the sex of a child can be important even before conception on medical grounds. For example, there are hereditary pathologies (diseases) that are associated with the sex, that is, they are transmitted only to the fetus of a certain sex. The most famous of them are hemophilia (blood incoagulability), transmitted only to the male sex. Usually this disease is said in the singular, but in fact there are several species of A, B, etc.
Techniques for determiningsex of the future child, are characterized by a striking variety. Apparently, it appears that humanity is engaged in this in its own fascinating process for a very long time, since ancient times. But with the development of modern science there are also new methods for determining the sex of the child. Such as, for example, the blood renewal in parents, the combination of blood groups, the date of birth of both parents, the lunar calculus of the ancient Chinese calendar, the diet, the heartbeat of the fetus, the shape of the abdomen, finally, and many others. But all these methods have one very significant drawback - low reliability and rely on them absolutely, of course, not worth it. One can only adhere to their recommendations, so that it is possible, indirectly, to somehow influence the definition of the sex of the unborn child.
In modern medicine, reliablemethods of determining the sex of the child by which it is possible both before conception and after it, in the process of fetal development. The classic and most common, as well as absolutely safe method is, of course, ultrasound. It can already be carried out from the first 12 weeks of intrauterine development. But it should be taken into account the fact that due to the anatomical features of the developing fetus in the early stages of ultrasound diagnosis, it is possible to erroneously determine the sex of the child even with high-class specialists and on modern apparatuses. That is why it is not necessary immediately after the first results of ultrasound to run for a "given" child of certain colors, but it is better to wait for later and reliable research. Now to buy ryashonki-envelopes-blankets there are no problems, but with their subsequent replacement for another color, they may well arise.
Before conception, it is absolutely reliable.determining the sex of a future child can be given by a single method, called scientifically preimplantation genetic diagnosis (Micro sort). Its essence boils down to the following: due to the fact that the sex of a future baby depends only on the father, whose spermatozoa carry that very cherished (X or Y chromosome), all cells carrying an undesirable sex are artificially removed from the sperm. With the participation of the others, the conception of a child of the “desired” sex is made. This method is new and not yet tested sufficiently and is carried out not for everyone, but strictly for medical reasons (in any case, in the Russian Federation it is legally allowed to use it that way). Moreover, in this case, only fertilization is possible only in an extracorporeal way, which is also not completely physiological.
In any case, before resorting to those orfor other interventions in the natural course of events, determined by nature itself, it is worth thinking about whether it is really necessary. Perhaps it makes sense to perceive the future child regardless of his gender and just to love him for what he is?
