Summary
This video discusses the methods of sex selection using in vitro fertilization (IVF) and sperm separation. IVF involves pairing an egg and sperm in a dish with the help of hormones, and embryos are selected for implantation based on their genetic makeup. Sperm separation is a newer technique that allows the separation of sperm samples into different fractions, with each fraction containing sperm that can give rise to either male or female offspring. Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is another method used to bias the probability of generating a specific sex. It is important to select embryos with healthy chromosomal arrangements to prevent miscarriages and birth defects.
