Gender Selection in Cape Town
Gender selection, also known as family balancing, allows parents to choose the sex of their baby during an IVF cycle utilizing Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT). This advanced scientific testing analyzes the chromosomes of the embryos to accurately identify their gender before transfer. It offers peace of mind for families looking to balance their family dynamic or avoid sex-linked genetic diseases.
