A member asked:

Is it possible for conceiving date to determine the sex of fetus?

Dr. Gerard Honore answered

Specializes in Fertility Medicine

Only in a way: Genetic sex is determined at the moment of conception, because the male's x- or y-bearing sperm determines the sex. There is nothing else about the date that has any relevance.
