Gender Selection Westchester, NY

If you are a parent, and you want to decide the gender of your child, then Dr. Andrew Silverman, MD, PhD can help you at the Silverman Center for Gender Selection. Based in Westchester, NY, his groundbreaking history with In vitro fertilization and experience with a private practice environment qualifies him to help you with gender selection.

Dr. Silverman was an Assistant Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Texas in San Antonio. There, he became interested in reproductive health issues and wanted to follow sub-specialty training in reproductive endocrinology. After he finished his training, he served as Director of the In-Vitro Fertilization program there. Once he began his private practice and for the past 20 years, Dr. Silverman has broken many barriers in the field of reproductive endocrinology and infertility. He established the first free In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) center in the Northeast, and was responsible for the first IVF pregnancy outside of a University Hospital unit. Today, couples who want to choose the sex of their baby come from all over the world for Dr. Silverman's expertise.

Dr. Silverman uses the following two techniques to raise the chance of correct gender selection:

- The Ericsson Method, which is more cost efficient, and is effective 70-75% of the time. Here, the sperm are sorted by gender, and then the sperm of the sex that the couple desires are used for an intrauterine insemination.
- Through the IVF/PGD technique, which is combined with the Ericsson Method, Dr. Silverman allows the eggs to be fertilized with the father's selected sperm outside of the mother's body. Afterwards, the embryos are tested for their gender and the embryo of the desired sex is given back to the mother.

So if you are a parent that wants to decide the sex of your baby because you want a child of the opposite sex, or you want to protect your children from inheriting a genetic disease, then you should decide on Gender Selection.
