Abstract |
The tendency to choose the sex of the baby by the couple on several factors has been discussed in the previous article (part 1 and part 2) while in this part 3 shares about other methods in science that are also said to be a factor to the determination of the sex of the baby. Among them are the "time" technique together (intercourse time), pre-implantation genetic diagnosis technique (PGD/PGS) to determine the quality of the embryo and the technique of 'prenatal sex identification' where through this technique, the sex of the baby in the womb is determined by taking blood samples from the mother and DNA tests were performed on the samples. |
