A member asked:
If someone chooses ivf, at the sperm bank do you have a choice to select the genetic type of sperm you want?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: If you are planning ivf with donor sperm, typically you are providing with descriptive information about each of the donors to assist you in selecting one. You cannot select the sex of the sperm. However, during the ivf process, you can select the sex of the embryo that is transferred.
