Some might say it is going "over the top", but others are comfortable with going all the way and select their child’s gender. This subject has been discussed in various articles and medical experts have their own opinion, but still is a personal choice for the couple to decide.
Microsort® is one of the most common patented procedures used. It simple terms it is a process where seminal fluid is filtered and pressured through a long tube.
