انتخاب جنسیت فرزند پیش از بارداری سالهاست که مورد توجه خانوادهها قرار دارد. هرچند عوامل ژنتیکی نقش اصلی را در تعیین جنسیت ایفا میکنند، اما پژوهشها نشان میدهد نوع تغذیه و سبک زندگی پیش از بارداری نیز میتواند تا حدی بر این موضوع تأثیر داشته باشد. بر همین اساس، رژیم غذایی تعیین جنسیت دختر مطرح شده است؛ رژیمی که در آن مصرف برخی مواد غذایی توصیه میشود و از برخی دیگر باید پرهیز کرد تا شرایط بدن مادر برای لقاح با احتمال بیشتر دختر شدن جنین مناسبتر شود. In this context, Dr. Mahshid Karimi obstetrics and gynecology specialist emphasizes that following nutritional principles before pregnancy can increase the chances of achieving the desired result among other factors.

dietary to determine the gender of a girl
Determining the gender of the child before pregnancy has always been one of the concerns of many families. In the meantime, the diet for determining the girl's gender is proposed as a simple and accessible method. However, it should be noted that this method does not have a definite and guaranteed effect from a scientific point of view and is known as a "folk belief" in many sources; But at the same time, some researches have shown that the change in nutrition and the amount of salts in the mother's body may be able to partially provide the conditions for conception with a higher probability of the fetus becoming a girl.
Therefore, this diet cannot be considered a 100% scientific method, but it can be considered as a low-risk and testable method along with other pregnancy planning methods. In the following, we will try to examine the principles of this diet and recommended foods to increase the probability of giving birth to a girl in a simple and practical way.
What to eat to get a girl?
Determining the sex of the fetus is done naturally by the X and Y chromosomes, and the principle of this process is completely genetic. However, some limited studies have shown that the composition of minerals in the mother's body can affect the conditions of conception. It is said that if the environment of the mother's body is more acidic and the amount of calcium and magnesium increases, the probability of success of the sperm carrying the X chromosome (girl) increases. On the other hand, sodium and potassium create more favorable conditions for Y (boy) sperm. Therefore, the diet for determining the gender of a girl is adjusted based on the reduction of sodium and potassium and the increase of calcium and magnesium.
Recommended foods to increase the probability of a girl-fetus
In this diet, the main emphasis is on using foods containing calcium and magnesium. Consuming this category of foods can have an effect on regulating the body's environment and creating suitable conditions for conception:
- Low-fat dairy products such as milk, yogurt and cheese
- vegetables such as spinach, broccoli, celery, lettuce and green beans
- Fruits including strawberries, apples, kiwis, oranges and grapefruit
- Whole grains, whole grain bread, wheat germ and boiled potatoes
In addition to the possibility of influencing sex, these foods are also useful for the general health of the body and help regulate hormones.
Foods that are better to be limited
Because they contain a high amount of sodium and potassium and increase the probability of having a boy:
- Too much salt and processed foods
- Fast foods and sausages
- Bananas, tomatoes and olives
- carbonated drinks and salty snacks
- Chips and industrial foods
Decreasing the consumption of these substances helps to better balance the body's solutes and may provide a more suitable environment for fertilization with X sperm.
Regime start time
To make a real change in the body, it is recommended to start this diet at least 6 weeks to 3 months before trying to get pregnant. This period of time gives the body enough time to adjust the level of minerals and create suitable conditions for conception. Adhering to the diet in a very short period of time will usually not have a significant effect.

Determining the sex of the fetus in a natural state is completely dependent on genetic factors; But in recent years, advanced medical methods such as IVF and IUI have made it possible for couples to plan more precisely. Compared to natural solutions, these methods have a much higher success rate and are especially valuable for couples who have infertility problems or a history of genetic diseases. In the IUI method, prepared sperms are injected directly into the uterus to increase the chances of fertility. Although in this method it is not possible to directly choose gender, some studies believe that the balance of minerals in the mother's body (such as calcium, magnesium, sodium and potassium) can affect the possibility of conception with sperm containing X or Y chromosome. For this reason, if you want the fetus to be a girl, following the diet to determine the girl's gender before performing IUI can play a supportive role and create a more suitable environment for X sperm. In the IVF (in vitro fertilization) method, egg and sperm fertilization is done in a laboratory environment and then a healthy embryo is transferred to the uterus. At this stage, it is possible to carry out a genetic examination of the fetus and even choose the gender before transfer. Therefore Define Sex with IVF is considered the most reliable method, and in specialized centers, if needed and with legal permission, the girl's gender can be chosen. A girl's gender determination diet alone cannot determine the gender, but it can significantly affect the quality of the egg, sperm, and finally the fetus. Doctors usually recommend modifying the mother's diet at least a few weeks before IVF or IUI. Dr. Mahshid Karimi is one of the most prominent and well-known doctors in the field of fertility and infertility treatment. With years of successful experience in IVF (extrauterine insemination) and IUI (intrauterine sperm injection), Dr. Karimi has greatly helped couples who are facing fertility problems. Dr. Karimi's high skill in managing the various stages of IVF and IUI, from preparing the mother's body to embryo transfer and post-pregnancy follow-ups, has made him known as one of the best doctors in this field in the country. His accuracy, clinical experience and professional treatment with patients have won the trust of couples and recorded many successful results in the field of fertility and in vitro fertilization. Determining the gender of the fetus is one of the most attractive and popular topics among families. Along with natural methods and folk beliefs such as diet, advanced medical methods such as IVF and IUI allow more precise control and higher success. Although the girl's gender determination diet alone cannot determine the gender of the fetus, following a healthy and balanced diet before pregnancy can improve the health of the mother and the fetus and the quality of conception.
