Today, a lot of couples want particular gender for their baby. A survey showed that more than 83% of couples want a child with a particular gender, male or female. A study conducted by Dr. Landrum B. Shettles in the 1960s, then developed into a method to determine the sex of the child's naturally. This method is then popularly called the Shettles Method.

Dr. Landrum B. Shettles built the method based on the concept of the differences in the character of sperm carrying male chromosomes (Y chromosome) and sperm carrying female chromosome (X chromosome).

In detail, differences in the character of those two types of sperm are as follows:

1. Speed. In terms of speed, Y-bearer sperm can swim faster than X-bearer sperm.

2. However, the Y-sperm bearer more vulnerable and die faster than X sperm-bearer.

3. Female chromosome carrying sperm is more resistant to acidic conditions than male chromosomes carrying sperm.

4. Increased sperm count is usually in line with the increased ratio of Y-sperm by X-bearer bearer sperm.

Based on the four characters above, shettles method constructed a set of rules for determine a specific gender. If you want a boy, here are the rules of the shettles method to have a baby boy:

1. Sexual intercourse during the period of ovulation and avoid intercourse afterwards. If possible, have sex only once, after that, you can use condom.

2. To increase the ratio of Y-bearer sperm, the male partner should not ejaculate for 4-5 days before the intercourse.

3. Keep your scrotum cool, avoid activities that can raise the temperature of the scrotum, such as biking, hot tubs, sauna, wearing tight pants, etc.. Scrotum with the higher temperature will reduce the number of Y-bearer sperm.

4. In order for the vagina to be more alkaline, the woman must achieve orgasm before the man ejaculates. Alkaline environment will benefit the Y-bearer sperm.

5. for the female partner, stay away from high acid foods, and multiply the foods that have a low pH.

Conclusion

Although shettles method is built on the facts of science, but there are few studies that actually prove that shettles method is not effective in determining the sex of the child. Dr. Landrum B. Shettles himself claims that the success rate of this method shettles reached 70% -90%. Some studies also suggest that shettles method may actually complicate the couple to have children. In the end, the most essential is the pregnancy itself, as a great grace and worthy of grateful.
