Our experience indicates that pregnancies are attained at approximately the same rate with MicroSort® sperm separation as those without MicroSort sperm separation. The number of attempts ( cycles) necessary to become pregnant depends on many factors including the age of the patient, the quality of the semen specimen, the type of clinical procedure ( IUI, IVF, or ICSI), and numerous other factors. How many tries does it take to get pregnant?

A child of the desired gender cannot be guaranteed because the current technology does not completely exclude either female or male sperm cells from the enriched sample. These data are determined by fluorescence in situ hybridization ( FISH) which allows the number of X- and Y-bearing sperm cells to be counted from a fraction of the sorted sample. MicroSort® sperm separation for male gender selection (YSort) currently results in an average of 73% Y-bearing sperm in the sorted specimen. What is the chance of getting the desired gender?Ĭurrently, MicroSort® sperm separation for female gender selection (XSort) results in an average of 88% X-bearing sperm in the sorted specimen.

Xsort method of gender selection trial#
*Please Note: At this time, new enrollment in the clinical trial is limited to couples attempting to prevent sex-linked or sex-limited disease by using MicroSort® sorted sperm. Couples using MicroSort® for the prevention of X-linked disorders may also consider using preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD). For couples who need additional assistance achieving pregnancy, MicroSort® can be used with in vitro fertilization (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI).
For most couples, the sorted sperm sample is then used with simple intrauterine insemination (IUI) to achieve pregnancy. MicroSort® is used before conception to separate sperm into those that either primarily produce girls or those that primarily produce boys. MicroSort® is a scientific method, currently in clinical trial, that increases the chance of a couple having a child of a particular gender.
