The Ericsson Method Westchester, NY

You've already been blessed with girls, but you would like to raise a child of the opposite sex as well. Dr. Andrew Silverman, MD at the Silverman Center for Gender Selection in Westchester, NY uses the Ericsson Method of Gender Selection so that families no longer have to leave this up to chance.

So you would like to have a gender-balanced family, but this is obviously not an easy task. At the Silverman Center for Gender Selection in Westchester, NY, Dr. Silverman uses the Ericsson Method of Gender Selection, giving parents the power to conceive a child of a chosen gender.

DNA, which determines traits such as eye color and gender, is stored in rod like packages called chromosomes. Each of your cells contains 23 chromosome pairs. Half of your chromosomes come from your father while half come from your mother. Gender is determined by a pair of chromosomes called the sex chromosomes. Males have an X chromosome paired with a Y chromosome, while females have two X chromosomes. The egg always provides the X chromosome, while the sperm, which determines the gender, carries either a Y or an X. Dr. Silverman uses a gender selection technique, called the Ericsson Method. This method, which allows families to choose the gender of their child with 75% accuracy, involves the separation of the X and Y carrying sperm. If you would like to conceive a boy, sperm carrying the Y chromosomes are selected and allowed to fertilize the egg.

Dr. Silverman has over 18 years of experience with using the Ericsson Method. He learned the method from its founder, Dr. Ronald J. Ericsson, PhD, and is now one of the foremost experts in its implementation.

The Ericsson Method allows families to:

- Avoid certain x-linked genetic diseases
- Provide gender balance
- Ensure that the family name is passed on by selecting to conceive a boy

He has added one of the most accurate methods of gender selection, Pre Implantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) to his repertoire and currently offers patients IVF, PGD, as well as Dr. Ericsson's method of gender selection. Using his training and expertise, he has given thousands of families the opportunity to determine the gender of their child.

If you have always longed to conceive a boy or a girl, the Ericsson Method ensures that you help choose the gender of your child. Call to make an appointment at the Silverman Center for Gender Selection in Westchester, NY today!
