Can you choose gender with IVF?

Sex selection through IVF is possible. You can determine the sex of the baby through PreImplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD). It is a process where the cells from the fertilized egg or embryo are extracted and examined for the desired sex.
After examination, the embryo with the desired chromosome XX for female and XY chromosome for male is selected, and the healthy ones are transferred into the female body to get the baby you want.
But this process is carried out in foreign countries, but the Government of India strictly prohibits it. Sex determination by any means is illegal, and you cannot include PGD in the IVF process even under your treatment with the best IVF center in Patna.
So there is no means to get a gender check-up in India under the legal method. At the same time, no one should go against the law for any reason.
