When pregnant, many expectant mothers are already eager to know whether their baby is a male or female. When they saw the method of testing the baby's gender with salt in their morning urine online, they were eager to try it out. Morning urine with salt is used to determine the gender of a baby by adding medical alcohol or salt to the morning urine of a pregnant woman. Is this statement true or not? It's something expectant mothers really want to know. Now let's talk about the relevant knowledge about this statement.
In fact, the claim of adding salt to the morning urine to determine the gender of a baby has no theoretical support or scientific basis, and expectant mothers do not need to pay too much attention to it. The gender of a fetus is determined by the chromosome of the father's sperm. If the chromosome provided by the father is the X chromosome, the baby born is a girl, and if it is the Y chromosome, the baby born is a boy. The probability of both X and Y chromosomes is 1/2. So theoretically, whether to have a boy or a girl is determined by the father's sperm chromosomes, and the likelihood of having a boy or a girl is roughly equal.
In addition, in China, parents are prohibited from conducting fetal gender identification. People often discover fetal gender through ultrasound, and it can only be determined from ultrasound after three months. However, the accuracy is not 100%. A more accurate method is amniocentesis, but it is mainly used to detect whether the fetus has 21 chromosome syndrome, and it is not recommended for expectant mothers to use it for fetal gender identification.
