I’ve been contemplating gender selection lately and the laws surrounding it in Canada. I’m curious to hear about others’ experiences or opinions on this topic. Has anyone here gone through the process or considered it? Let’s share our thoughts and insights!
It is recommended that you speak with the genetic counselor at your clinic. This would involve testing the embryos for any hereditary conditions before proceeding with IVF.
Selective sex determination based on preference is prohibited, but preimplantation genetic testing for monogenic disorders (PGT-M) is permissible, provided the issue is sex-related. It is recommended to research PGT-M and sex-specific concerns on the forum, but consulting with your doctor is the best way to clarify any doubts. In Canada, others have indicated that it may be allowed, but ultimately the clinic will have the final say. If you have concerns about the clinic’s response, seeking a legal consultation or contacting the medical regulator may be necessary. Clinics may be cautious and require legal documentation, so it is advisable to seek legal guidance if needed. Best of luck.
