We haven't talked too much about in vitro fertilization . But in vitro fertilization involves as the name suggests taking an egg and taking a sperm , pairing them in a dish . This can be done a number of different ways .
There are now emerging methods that people are using in order to separate out the sperm that will indeed give rise to a male offspring versus a female offspring . Now , this of course is done in the context of in vitro fertilization . We haven't talked too much about in vitro fertilization .
Now , this of course is done in the context of in vitro fertilization . We haven't talked too much about in vitro fertilization . But in vitro fertilization involves as the name suggests taking an egg and taking a sperm , pairing them in a dish .
And what these clinics have figured out is that if they spin the sperm sample at the correct spin rate that the sperm that will give rise to male offspring and the sperm that will give rise to female offspring segregate out into different fractions , allowing them to take each of those fractions separately and to apply them to eggs . If it's in vitro fertilization and give rise very reliably , certainly much more than chance to either male or female embryos . They also , of course , can choose to do this outside the context of in vitro fertilization .
Or ideally , it would be live sperm collected that day that are um washed through a very uh straightforward procedure . And then those sperm either are allowed to compete for those eggs and fertilize those eggs and allow them to advance to um very early embryo stage before those embryos are frozen and eventually implanted into a woman in order to have them be carried to full term . Ideally , or there's a procedure in which specific sperm are selected because they have the best morphology , motility and so forth .
