A lot of couples want to choose the sex of their baby for many reasons.

To avoid having a child with a hereditary sex-linked disease, such as muscular dystrophy or hemophilia, since only males born are affected.

Couples already have at least one child of the same sex and wish to have another child of the opposite sex to enjoy both boys and girls in their family.
The procedure
